What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a highly effective treatment for hormonal imbalances in both men and women. These hormones are derived from plant sources (like yams or soy). Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those naturally produced by your body. This allows for a more natural approach to restoring balance and improving well-being. The bioidentical hormones may be safer or more “natural” than synthetic hormones. These hormones typically including estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone.
Who May Benefit from BHRT?
You may be a good candidate for BHRT if you have low estrogen, low testosterone, or other hormone deficiencies contributing to the following symptoms:
- Weight gain
- Increased body fat
- Reduced muscle mass
- Fatigue or low energy
- Thinning hair or dry skin
- Vaginal dryness and hot flashes (in women)
- Erectile dysfunction (in men)
- Decreased sex drive
- Mood changes, including depression
BHRT is a safe and simple treatment that can significantly improve quality of life by addressing the root cause of these symptoms rather than just masking them.
