What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?

As you age, you may begin to notice that your body and mind do not function as they did when you were in your twenties. Your thinking might have slowed, and you tire more easily. You might have trouble sleeping, performing sexually, or have trouble losing weight and maintaining your strength. Most people think this is natural, that aging always comes with medical symptoms like fatigue, low energy, loss of motivation, depressed mood, anxiety, irritability, loss of memory or loss of concentration. But this isnt true! These symptoms are not just a part of getting older and you dont have to live with these symptoms of aging anymore!

For many people, the symptoms of aging are actually caused by declining hormone levels, which begin to drop as early as your thirties. Fortunately, this can be corrected with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, or BHRT. Some of the many benefits of BHRT are listed below. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy will reverse all symptoms of hormone imbalance and return you to your optimal physical, sexual, mental, and emotional health of your 20s and 30s.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the science of modulating hormone levels in order to maintain optimal physiological (normal) levels. This is achieved by obtaining a lab test, which will determine if you have hormone imbalance. Hormone imbalance can occur when hormone levels are either too low or too high. HRT treatments to achieve hormone balance are individually customized to each patient based on the lab results. Lab testing for HRT for men and HRT for women evaluate the following hormone levels: Testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA, cortisol, thyroid, human growth hormone (IGF-1) and vitamin D.

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a specialized field of medicine, which consists of the use of bioidentical hormones to correct male hormone imbalance and female hormone imbalance (i.e. hormone deficiency or excess).

Unlike conventional hormone therapy, which uses synthetic hormones or those derived from animals, BHRT uses naturally derived hormones in the proper levels to eliminate symptoms. Bioidentical hormones are identical to the hormones the human body produces, making them safer and more effective than synthetic hormones

Studies show that BHRT significantly improves quality of life and health while decreasing the risk of developing chronic illnesses. Some of the many benefits of BHRT are listed below.
