Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, hormone levels can become imbalanced, leading to undesirable symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones with bioidentical versions can help restore optimal levels, thereby relieving symptoms.
Butterfly Hormone Center specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) using customized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs. We offer both women and men clinically proven solutions to overcome symptoms of hormone imbalance.
Rebalancing hormones with BHRT provides multiple benefits:
Relieving symptoms like fatigue, low libido, headaches, hot flashes, and night sweats, allowing patients to feel energized and regain quality of life. Studies show BHRT also helps prevent diseases later in life.
Balanced hormones are crucial for emotional wellbeing and cognitive function. BHRT can elevate mood, ease anxiety/irritability, sharpen focus, and improve sleep.
Optimizing hormones vital for cell regeneration and healthy aging. BHRT users often report looking and feeling 5-10 years younger due to improved skin tone/quality, higher energy levels, and increased muscle mass.
The first step is diagnostic blood testing to check individual hormone levels. We use advanced analysis to uncover deficiencies and determine the right treatments. Testing provided at our San Diego clinic includes: - Testosterone level testing for men - Estrogen/progesterone level testing for women - Thyroid hormone testing
Based on test results, our practitioners create fully personalized, safe BHRT plans to restore optimal hormone balance.
We provide bioidentical hormone therapy for both men and women. Treatment plans are tailored to each patient's bloodwork and needs.
Testosterone deficiency becomes more common for men over 30. Low testosterone manifests in symptoms like fatigue, irritability, low libido, erectile dysfunction, loss of strength/endurance, weight gain (especially abdominal fat), depression, poor concentration, and thinning hair.
If blood tests show clinically low testosterone, we prescribe bioidentical testosterone via injections, gels or pellets to replenish levels. This alleviates symptoms for men to restore vibrancy.
Benefits of testosterone therapy include increased energy/stamina, more strength, fat loss, higher libido, improved mood/cognition, healthier heart and blood vessels, greater bone density, normalized cholesterol levels, and higher quality sleep.
For women, declining progesterone/estrogen hormones during perimenopause/menopause cause hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, anxiety, trouble sleeping, fatigue, weight gain, decreased sex drive, irregular periods, infertility, and accelerated skin aging. Bone and heart health also suffer without adequate estrogen.
Our practitioners prescribe bioidentical estrogen and/or progesterone creams, pills or pellet implants based on bloodwork. Dosages start low then increase gradually as needed. Patients then report dramatic alleviation of uncomfortable menopausal symptoms, better physical/emotional health, feeling/looking younger, and improved quality of life. HRT also aids genitourinary atrophy relief and protects against osteoporosis and heart disease long-term.
An imbalance in thyroid hormones like too much (hyperthyroidism) or too little (hypothyroidism) negatively impacts nearly all body functions. Our integrative thyroid tests reveal whether thyroid bioidentical hormones are warranted. Custom-dosed thyroxine or triiodothyronine then regulate metabolism and oxygen usage at the cellular level. Relieving symptoms like stubborn weight gain, fatigue, hair thinning, sensitivity to cold/heat, constipation, muscle aches, sluggish thinking, hoarse voice, puffy face, thinning brows and much more.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Large, long-term studies comparing health outcomes of bioidenticals vs synthetics are lacking, so claims of superiority lack sufficient evidence. More research is needed.

Hormone levels decline slowly over years before obvious symptoms manifest. That’s why periodic testing is key— for early detection of imbalances. The sooner deficiencies get diagnosed and corrected, the faster patients feel better and realize anti-aging benefits.
We also strongly advise integrating positive lifestyle habits that support hormonal health like staying active, eating nutritious whole foods, reducing alcohol/toxins, sufficient sleep, stress management and taking targeted nutraceuticals.
Combining bioidentical therapy, nutrition, fitness and wellness maximizes successful patient outcomes. Our goal is helping patients win the fight against aging!
We encourage patients to integrate positive lifestyle changes during treatment: - Laboratories like AnyLabTestNow and Ulta Lab Tests provide blood testing - Spas like Kadoma or Rancho Valencia Spa relax and rejuvenate - Fitness centers like Gold's Gym and YMCA improve strength and bone density - Restaurants like Urge Gastropub and Bencotto Italian Kitchen offer nutritious dining options - Attractions like Hiking Cowles Mountain and Visiting Hotel Del Coronado reduce stress
