Enhance Your Life!
As women get older, hormone levels vary due to menopause, pregnancy, or age and can affect their physical appearance, mood, and overall sexual wellness. To help promote women’s overall health, our treatments can promote mood, boost energy levels and sexual function, stimulate cognitive functions, and more.
The female benefits of optimization are:
- enhancement of arousal and orgasm
- increased confidence
- increased lubrication
- tighter introitus – vaginal opening
- elimination of menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes
- revitalization of vaginal and clitoral function
- brain enhancement
- skin revitalization and rejuvenation
- increased bone density
- decreased urinary incontinence
- reduced vaginal pain with intercourse
Treatment Options
Since our approach is to look at overall health and causes of symptoms or conditions, we take a multi-layered approach to Sexual Wellness. We provide expertise in several different treatment options, utilizing the convergence of Eastern and Modern medicine. Our preferred treatment options are as follows:
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
What are bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are plant derived hormones that are prepared by a compounding pharmacy to have the same molecular structure as the hormones made by your own body. They produce the same physiological responses as those of endogenous (made in body) hormones. Most conventional hormones prescribed are synthetic for women, are synthetic hormones commonly used for hormone replacement therapy. These synthetic formulations are different than bioidentical hormones. Since pharmaceutical manufacturers cannot patent a bioidentical structure, they have invented synthetic hormones that are patentable or which are provided in a unique delivery system such as an injectable.
The appeal of bioidentical hormones is that they are identical to endogenous human hormones, so our bodies can metabolize them normally, minimizing side effects. Synthetic hormones are more likely to produce adverse side effects such as weight gain, water retention, mood changes, acne, sweating and fatigue. In addition, prescription synthetic hormones have little variation in dosage, whereas the compounded bioidentical hormones can be more accurately matched to meet every person’s needs.
Is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy for You?
With exposure to environmental, dietary and chemical toxins, which accelerate the normal decline in natural hormone production as we age, almost all of us over the age of 40 (and often younger) begin to experience signs and symptoms of hormone imbalance. To deal with this growing health concern, one needs comprehensive lab testing and in depth personalized questionnaires to create a personalized treatment plan.
Many factors can contribute to imbalance of hormones:
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Adrenal dysfunction and fatigue
- Thyroid disease
- Metabolic dysfunction
- Inflammatory conditions
As a result of hormone imbalance related to these conditions, you may be experiencing one or a combination of what have become known as symptoms of “normal” aging. Yet, hormone levels seen when we were younger are more ideal than the lower ranges seen in aging populations. Do you want your hormone status optimized to the time when you felt great, had the drive and motivation to succeed in all aspects of life, and had energy to burn!? Of course you do, we all do. At Anatara Medicine, you will meet with our Team of outstanding practitioners who will assess your symptoms and provide a tailored treatment plan for you.
Signs and symptoms of hormone imbalances:
- Weight gain
- Limited energy
- Hair loss
- Low sex drive
- Depression
- Mood swings
- Sleeplessness
- Poor concentration
- Memory loss
- Fatigue
If symptoms like these have begun to affect your quality of life, you could be a candidate for bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

PT-141
Bremelanotide (PT-141) was developed from the peptide hormone Melanotan II. In initial testing, Melanotan II induced darkening of skin pigment, but additionally caused sexual arousal and spontaneous erections as unexpected side effects in nine out of the ten original male volunteer test subjects. Further testing in animals showed Bremelanotide to induce lordosis (a sexual mating behavior) and subsequently tested for its effect in humans. Although, most of the research has been targeted to women with female sexual dysfunction, it is an effective medication in treating sexual dysfunction in both men (erectile dysfunction or impotence) and women (sexual arousal disorder). Unlike Viagra and other related medications, it does not act upon the vascular system, but directly increases sexual desire via the nervous system.
It is estimated that 43% of women (30 million is the US) suffer from sexual dysfunction and 30 million men suffer from ED, with incidence increasing 2-3-fold between ages 40-70. Bremelanotide currently has no contraindications and is 80% effective in people who don’t respond to Viagra or Cialis.
