How are you really feeling? It’s a simple question with a complicated answer. Even with a healthy diet and regular exercise, you might still struggle with fatigue, low mood, or a general sense that something’s off. As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, and that shift can affect everything from your energy and focus to your mood, weight, and libido. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) helps restore balance, supporting your body’s natural rhythms so you can feel like yourself again — energized, clear-minded, and confident.
REQUEST APPOINTMENTWhat is Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) takes a whole-body approach to helping you feel your best at any age. Hormones play a vital role in nearly every function of the body — from metabolism and mood to muscle strength and sexual health. When these levels drop over time, you may start to notice changes that affect how you look, feel, and live.
BHRT works to restore your body’s natural balance and vitality. At Behr, our experienced providers understand the intricate relationship between testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and more. As leaders in hormone health, we take the time to listen to your concerns and design a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your unique goals and lifestyle.
At Behr, your journey to renewed energy and balance is one we take together — every step of the way.

Who are the Candidates?
Men and women experience the effects of aging in different ways, and hormonal changes play a big part in that. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) can help address these imbalances by replenishing hormones that naturally decline over time.
Men who may benefit from BHRT often experience one or more of the following symptoms:
- Thinning hair or dry skin
- Mood swings or irritability
- Weight gain, especially around the midsection
- Erectile dysfunction or reduced performance
- Persistent fatigue
- Anxiety and/or depression
- Difficulty concentrating or staying focused
- Decreased libido
Women who are good candidates for BHRT may be dealing with:
- Menopause or perimenopause symptoms
- Loss of bone density
- Anxiety and/or depression
- Hot flashes or night sweats
- Mood swings
- Thinning hair or dry skin
- Vaginal dryness or discomfort
- Decreased libido
- Trouble focusing or mental fog
Women with a history of blood clots, liver disease, breast cancer, or ovarian cancer may not be ideal candidates for hormone therapy. During your personalized consultation, your Behr provider will review your health history, symptoms, and goals to determine if BHRT is the right solution for you.
The Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy Procedure
From the moment you arrive at our Fresno office, you’ll feel supported and understood. Your provider will take the time to listen, answer your questions, and develop a plan that aligns with your goals and overall health. We begin with a simple, gentle blood draw to assess your current hormone levels — giving us a clear picture of what’s happening inside your body.
Once your results are ready, your provider will review them with you in detail, explaining what they mean and how they relate to your symptoms. From there, we create a customized Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) plan designed specifically for you. Thanks to advancements in hormone therapy, treatment is now simpler and more consistent than ever. At Behr, we use pellet therapy, a modern, low-maintenance option that eliminates the mess and inconvenience of traditional gels or creams.
Pellet Therapy
Pellet therapy offers a steady, natural release of hormones — avoiding the “ups and downs” that can come with other delivery methods. During a quick in-office procedure, your Behr provider will insert tiny pellets (about the size of a grain of rice) beneath the skin in the hip area — typically 1-2 for women and 2-10 for men. These pellets are custom-compounded to meet your unique needs, containing estrogen and/or testosterone for women, and testosterone (with the occasional estrogen blocker) for men.
This method ensures consistent results and lasting balance — so you can feel your best every day, without the hassle.
Continued Care: The Behr Difference
The BHRT journey doesn’t stop once your pellets are in place. In fact, that’s just the beginning. Our team stays closely connected with you every step of the way, ensuring your treatment is safe, effective, and tailored to your needs. You’ll have ongoing communication with our professional staff, sharing updates on how you’re feeling as the hormones take effect.
In the 3-4 months following your initial session, your provider will routinely check your blood levels and track your progress. If adjustments are needed, your hormone plan will be fine-tuned to deliver the best possible results — helping you feel balanced, energized, and fully supported throughout your journey.
Remarkable Results
Aging is natural, but it doesn’t have to feel disruptive. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) helps restore balance by supporting the body’s intricate hormonal systems.
Results vary because every patient is unique, but many people notice increased energy, improved mood, and an overall sense of well-being. Early research even suggests that BHRT may help reduce the risk of certain forms of dementia.

Is Hormone Replacement Safe?
Hormone replacement therapy is safe when managed by a trained medical professional. Like any medical treatment, there are potential risks, which is why it’s important not to adjust your hormones on your own. At Behr, our team has perfected the science of BHRT, safely optimizing your hormone levels to bring your body back into balance and help you feel your best.
How Long Does It Take HRT To Work?
Many patients begin to notice the initial effects of hormone replacement within a few weeks. Over the following months, these benefits continue to build as your body adjusts to the therapy. The key to success is a personalized approach — respecting your unique chemistry and using the right hormone formula for your needs.
