TRT & BHRT

Hormone optimization, built on data — not guesswork.

Hormones influence energy, body composition, mood, sleep, libido, and long-term health. Our TRT and BHRT program pairs comprehensive lab work and independent physician evaluation with the nutrition and training coaching that determines whether hormone therapy actually works.

Straight Answers

What is TRT?

TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) restores testosterone toward an optimal physiologic range in men with clinically low levels confirmed by both lab testing and symptoms. It is a medical therapy that requires physician evaluation, ongoing monitoring, and follow-up labs — at BioSphere, all of that is directed independently by licensed physicians of BioSphere Physician Partners, PC.

What is the difference between TRT and BHRT?

TRT specifically replaces testosterone. BHRT (bioidentical hormone replacement therapy) uses hormones structurally identical to those your body makes — estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and thyroid support — and is most often used for perimenopausal and menopausal women, or for men who need broader endocrine support beyond testosterone alone.

How much does hormone optimization cost?

BioCore™ strategy membership starts at $99/month with a Human Optimization Strategist™, personalized strategy, app access, and progress tracking. BioPerformance™ is $299/month and adds nutrition and fitness plans with monthly strategy sessions. Biomed Essential is $299/month, includes BioCore Plus™ coaching and healthcare navigation, and offers a hormone optimization program through BioSphere Physician Partners, PC. Medications and any services not included in the selected membership are billed separately.

Who is a candidate for hormone therapy?

Candidacy is determined by a licensed physician using a full panel — total and free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, LH/FSH, thyroid, CBC, and cardiometabolic markers — alongside your symptoms and history. Symptoms alone are not a diagnosis, and many people improve substantially by correcting sleep, body composition, alcohol, and protein intake first.

Education

Understanding hormone optimization

What TRT is

Testosterone replacement therapy restores testosterone toward an optimal physiologic range in men with clinically low levels confirmed by lab testing and symptoms. It is a medical therapy requiring evaluation, monitoring, and follow-up labs.

What BHRT is

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy uses hormones structurally identical to those the body produces — commonly estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid support — most often for perimenopausal and menopausal women, and for men needing broader endocrine support.

Why labs come first

A full panel establishes your baseline: total and free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, LH/FSH, thyroid panel, DHEA-S, CBC, CMP, lipids, ApoB, and hs-CRP. Symptoms alone are not a diagnosis.

Why lifestyle changes the outcome

Sleep debt, visceral fat, alcohol, undereating protein, and chronic stress all suppress hormone signaling. Many people improve substantially before any therapy — and everyone on therapy does better with these fundamentals handled.

Monitoring matters

Ongoing therapy requires periodic labs to track hematocrit, estradiol, PSA where appropriate, and cardiometabolic markers. Your strategist keeps the schedule; your physician interprets and adjusts.

Realistic expectations

Changes in energy and libido often show earlier than changes in body composition. Results vary by individual, and no outcome is guaranteed.

General Information

General information on possible protocols

Educational overview only. Any medical protocol is prescribed at the independent discretion of a licensed physician after evaluation — not by BioSphere coaching staff.

Male hormone protocols

Physicians may consider injectable, topical, or pellet testosterone, with adjunct agents such as hCG or an aromatase inhibitor where clinically indicated. Route, dose, and cadence are entirely a clinician decision.

Female hormone protocols

Options may include transdermal estradiol, oral or topical progesterone, low-dose testosterone, and DHEA — selected based on menopausal status, symptoms, history, and labs.

Thyroid and adrenal support

Where testing supports it, physicians may address thyroid function or cortisol rhythm, since these often drive symptoms mistaken for low sex hormones.

Coaching layer

Protein-forward nutrition, progressive resistance training, sleep architecture work, and alcohol reduction — the levers that consistently amplify hormone therapy results.

Medical Access Through Partnership

Access to medical evaluation, labs, and prescription protocols is provided through our partnership with BioSphere Physician Partners, PC. Biosphere Human Optimization provides non-medical coaching, education, and coordination. All diagnoses, prescriptions, and treatment decisions are made independently by licensed clinicians. Medical programs have their own membership fees; medications, outside testing, and services not included in a selected membership may be billed separately.

Who this is for

  • Men with symptoms of low testosterone confirmed by lab testing
  • Women navigating perimenopause or menopause who want a structured, data-driven approach
  • People already on hormone therapy who feel under-monitored or under-coached
  • Anyone who wants lifestyle fundamentals optimized before considering therapy
