Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy - What is it and what are the benefits?

Hormones are the chemical messengers of the body charged with carrying information to cells throughout the body.  Hormones influence and coordinate everything from your digestion and growth to your appetite, immune function, mood, and libido. As we get older, hormone levels will change. This varies from person to person. Aging and other conditions can cause hormone levels to change and become unbalanced. When they do, even slightly, that imbalance can have a big impact on your health and well-being.

Hormone imbalance can have a tremendous effect on your energy, mood, sex drive and more. These effects can be moderate to severe. We have found that bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help many of our patients mitigates these effects. Hormone Replacement Therapy  promises a “natural” solution to hormone issues.

What exactly are BioIdentical Hormones?

Bioidentical hormones are hormones derived from plant estrogens that are chemically identical to those the human body produces. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are among those most commonly replicated and used in treatment. 

Often BHRT is used to increase the levels of the hormones that have become imbalanced and improve moderate to severe menopause symptoms, which include hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, memory loss, weight gain, sleep issues and loss of interest in sex or pain during sex.
