Hormone Replacement Therapy
Provider-guided hormone care begins with a professional consultation, comprehensive evaluation, and an individualized treatment plan.
Treatment Overview
Personalized Hormone Care
Elevate Evansville offers provider-guided hormone replacement therapy for patients seeking an individualized approach to hormone health and overall wellness.
Treatment begins with a professional consultation and comprehensive evaluation. When appropriate, laboratory testing may be used to help the provider understand the patient’s hormone levels and develop a personalized treatment plan.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
An Individualized Approach
Elevate Evansville’s current treatment information describes the use of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, commonly called BHRT.
Depending on the patient’s evaluation, laboratory results, needs, and provider recommendations, an individualized treatment plan may involve hormones such as:
- Testosterone
- Estrogen
- Progesterone
Not every patient will qualify for treatment, and not every patient will receive these hormones. Specific medications, delivery methods, and protocols are determined by the provider.

Potential Wellness Goals
Why Patients May Request a Consultation
Patients may request a hormone consultation to discuss concerns involving areas such as:
- Energy
- Mood
- Sleep
- Metabolism
- Healthy aging
- General well-being
These concerns may have many possible causes. A consultation does not guarantee that Hormone Replacement Therapy will be recommended or that treatment will improve a specific symptom.
Who Determines Whether Treatment Is Appropriate?
Provider Evaluation Is Required
Hormone Replacement Therapy requires an individualized medical evaluation. The Elevate Evansville provider will determine whether treatment is appropriate based on the patient’s health history, current medications, laboratory findings when applicable, treatment goals, and clinical judgment.
- Patients should provide a complete health history.
- Patients should disclose all medications and supplements.
- Patients should inform the provider about existing medical conditions.
- Patients should follow all laboratory and follow-up instructions provided by the medical team.
- Patients should not begin, stop, or change hormone medication without provider guidance.
