Hormones play a critical role in regulating many of the body's functions. As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Hormone deficiency can severely impact quality of life, causing issues like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, anxiety, and depression. Proper hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can safely and effectively relieve these symptoms when natural hormone production falls too low.
At Renew Hormone Institute in Kinston, North Carolina, we specialize in precision hormone optimization for both women and men. Our compassionate medical providers use advanced testing and cutting-edge therapies to restore hormonal balance. We create fully customized treatment plans to help patients look and feel their absolute best.
The first step is identifying any hormone deficiencies through comprehensive lab testing. We analyze key hormones like estrogen, testosterone, thyroid hormones (T3 & T4), cortisol, and more to pinpoint areas of imbalance. Testing also reveals issues affecting hormone levels, like inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and chronic stress.
Our providers carefully evaluate lab results alongside symptoms to determine which hormones need support. Frequent testing throughout treatment allows for continual optimization as the body’s needs change. We use this data-driven approach to provide patients with the exact therapies required for their unique hormonal needs.
Balancing hormones delivers transformative improvements in energy, body composition, sexual health, emotional wellbeing, sleep quality, skin health, and so much more. Patients often describe hormone optimization as life-changing.
Some specific benefits of hormone replacement therapy include:
After testing confirms a need for hormone therapy, we work diligently to help every patient achieve all the benefits of a properly balanced endocrine system.
The type of hormone replacement therapy we provide depends on the patient's individual needs and hormone test results. However, we have extensive experience safely administering all of the following effective treatment options:
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone. It plays a crucial role in sexual health, muscle growth, bone density, red blood cell production, and more all-encompassing health and vitality. Low testosterone afflicts millions of American men, robbing them of their strength, confidence, and wellness.
We provide pharmaceutical-grade testosterone therapy to reverse the adverse effects of this common deficiency. Treatment modalities include testosterone injections, gels, pellets, and oral preparations to ensure comfortable, convenient dosing. Careful monitoring helps men achieve testosterone levels optimal for their age and needs without exceeded safe ranges.
The benefits of properly administered testosterone replacement are immense, including enhanced libido, erection quality, energy levels, body composition, mood, motivation and overall masculine characteristics. We've helped thousands reclaim their strength, performance, and pride.
Estrogen regulates hundreds of important functions in the female body. Plummeting estrogen during perimenopause and menopause leads to debilitating symptoms impairing quality of life for millions of women. Hormone replacement safely alleviates these issues.
We offer bioidentical estrogen therapy through pills, patches, gels and pellets to restore comfort, wellbeing and femininity. Balancing estrogen minimizes hot flashes, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, weight gain, mood swings, sleep disruption, brain fog and accelerated aging. Customized treatment supports users through perimenopause, menopause and beyond.
The thyroid gland produces hormones regulating metabolism, energy, appetite, temperature regulation and much more. Even subtle low thyroid function can make users feel awful. We optimize thyroid activity using synthetic or porcine thyroid medications like Synthroid, Armour Thyroid and compounded formulas tailored to the patient's needs. Correcting deficiencies alleviates fatigue, stubborn weight, hair loss, anxiety, low sex drive and many other hypothyroidism symptoms for dramatically elevated health and wellness.
We also address secondary thyroid dysfunction by supporting nutrient status, reducing inflammation and correcting hormonal imbalances driving suboptimal thyroid health for more robust, lasting results.
In addition to the major sex and thyroid hormones, many other hormonal systems crucially impact health. We provide targeted therapies to optimize:
We also offer therapies for insulin regulation, gastrointestinal health, inflammation control, micronutrient balance and more as needed to correct underlying drivers of hormonal imbalance. No other providers match our experience restoring complete neuroendocrine wellness.
Our comprehensive protocols deliver transformative enhancement to your physical form, emotional state, energy levels, and every aspect of your health.
Maintaining proper hormone balance is absolutely vital for sustainable health, disease prevention and an elevated quality of life. Imbalances should always be identified early and corrected swiftly to avoid prolonged suffering and degeneration.
Unfortunately, classic healthcare often fails to detect hormonal dysfunction until patients already experience advanced deficiency symptoms. Treatments usually address isolated issues without resolving root causes for lasting results.
We take the precise opposite approach.
We identify hormone issues long before most mainstream providers using our advanced testing panels examining key blood markers, salivary biomarkers, genetics, micronutrient status, metabolism and more. Analyzing subclinical imbalances provides a tremendous head start correcting issues before they severely impact health.
Rather than waiting for overt disease to emerge then attempting to suppress symptoms, our focus is continually optimizing all aspects of endocrine function. We help patients maximize energy levels, body composition, sexual performance, mood balance and total wellness through precision hormone balance.
Our regenerative protocols slow cellular aging, enhance natural healing processes, reduce disease risk and radically elevate quality of life.
Imbalanced hormone production does not occur in isolation. We identify and correct the root biological causes driving dysregulation such as inflammation, micronutrient deficiencies, intestinal dysfunction, blood sugar dysregulation, & chronic stress for complete resolution.
By combining advanced hormone testing, customized therapies and root cause analysis, we deliver lasting transformative results far beyond symptomatic relief.
Renew Hormone Institute features a level of scientific expertise unmatched by traditional medical clinics. We lead patients to the most advanced stage of wellness possible.
Our precision testing reveals suboptimal hormone function years before obvious disease develops. We identify and correct imbalances immediately through proven treatment protocols for regenerative results. Proactive optimization minimizes disease risk while radically enhancing health.
Completely customized therapies using the most cutting edge options allow us to create individual solutions for each patient’s unique needs. No other provider matches our level of personalization.
Root cause analysis gets to the bottom of why patients developed imbalances in the first place. Resolving these drivers, rather than just masking symptoms, leads to transformative and lasting enhancements.
No other hormone clinic provides more effective testing, innovative therapies, or thorough root cause analysis. Our passionate practitioners leverage these advantages to guide patients to unprecedented states of total wellness.

Recent research has found that hormone therapy started early in menopause and given for up to 10 years actually provides a modest benefit for bone health and is not associated with harm to the heart. This challenges previous advice that hormone therapy should be used in the lowest doses for the shortest time due to heart disease risks.
While hormone replacement therapy provides the foundation, optimized lifestyle habits work synergistically to enhance results. We educate patients on evidence-based strategies to improve sleep quality, manage stress, enhance nutrition, increase activity and kick unhealthy habits.
Quality sleep is when the body produces its highest levels of muscle-building testosterone and human growth hormone. Poor sleep disrupts endocrine function. We counsel patients on proper sleep hygiene to support hormone balance.
Regular activity maintains mobility, fights inflammation, manages weight, reduces stress and enhances hormone sensitivity. We provide customized metabolic training and movement strategies for optimal patient outcomes.
An anti-inflammatory diet rich in healthy fats, fibrous vegetables and clean protein sources provides the raw materials for robust hormone synthesis while fighting factors inflaming hormone receptors. Patients meet with our nutrition team for individualized meal planning.
Chronic stress over activates the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis, shifting hormone output toward inflammation and catabolism while suppressing anabolism. We train patients in breathing techniques, nature immersion, meditation, yoga, recreation and other proven stress management modalities.
Implementing positive lifestyle habits synergizes powerfully with hormone therapy for radically upgraded health, function and longevity.
