Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a form of therapy that uses hormones that are identical on a molecular level to the hormones produced by the human body. The goal of BHRT is to address symptoms associated with hormone imbalances or declines in hormone production, which can occur due to aging or other health conditions.
Skipping periods, frequent periods, or unpredictable menstrual cycles are often a sign of hormonal imbalance.
Increased anxiety, irritability, and depression can be linked to hormonal shifts.
Unexplained and sudden changes in weight can be a sign of hormonal changes.
Feeling excessively tired could be a symptom of hormonal imbalance, such as issues with thyroid hormones or adrenal fatigue.
Difficulty sleeping or changes in sleep patterns can be associated with hormonal imbalances, such as changes in progesterone and estrogen levels.
Acne, dry skin, or other skin changes can indicate hormonal problems.
Hormonal imbalances, especially related to thyroid health or changes in estrogen and testosterone levels, can lead to hair loss or thinning.
Regular occurrences of headaches or migraines can sometimes be linked to hormonal changes.
A decrease in sex drive is commonly associated with imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Commonly associated with menopause, these symptoms can also occur with other hormonal imbalances.
Changes in breast tissue, including increased tenderness or changes in size, can be a symptom of hormonal changes.
Experiencing confusion or difficulties with concentration and memory can be related to hormonal imbalances.
According to a study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, balancing estrogen levels can alleviate these symptoms and improve overall health. Additionally, lifestyle changes, such as adjusting diet and exercise routines, can help manage estrogen levels and mitigate symptoms.
Women that experience estrogen dominances may experience these symptoms:
Be Aware: If left unchecked this condition might contribute to more serious health issues like fibroids and endometriosis.
Menopause is a natural life stage for women, yet it presents various challenges that can affect daily life. Our approach recognizes the uniqueness of each woman’s experience, offering bioidentical hormone replacement therapy when appropriate, complemented by thoughtful lab monitoring to enhance life quality during menopause.
Determining whether Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is the right treatment involves a combination of clinical evaluations, patient symptoms, and hormone testing.
The first step often involves a detailed discussion about the patient’s symptoms. BHRT is frequently considered for symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances or deficiencies, such as those occurring during menopause (e.g., hot flashes, mood swings, sleep disturbances), andropause in men (e.g., decreased libido, fatigue, loss of muscle mass), or other hormonal disorders.
The healthcare provider will review the patient’s medical history, including any existing health conditions, family history, and lifestyle factors. A physical examination can also provide essential insights into the patient’s health status and any signs that might suggest hormonal imbalances.
If a hormonal imbalance is suspected, the next step typically involves hormone level testing through blood, saliva, or urine. These tests help to quantify levels of various hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and others, which are crucial in tailoring the BHRT to the individual's specific needs.
BHRT, like any therapy, carries potential risks and benefits, which must be carefully evaluated. This includes considering the patient’s risk factors for hormone-related conditions, such as breast cancer, heart disease, and stroke. The decision to proceed with BHRT often involves a discussion about these risks and benefits, ensuring that the patient makes an informed choice.
If BHRT is deemed appropriate, the treatment is typically customized based on the individual’s specific hormonal needs. Bioidentical hormones are compounded in dosages and forms (such as creams, pills, or patches) tailored to address the patient’s particular hormone levels and symptoms.
Once on BHRT, patients are regularly monitored to assess the therapy’s effectiveness and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment regimen. Follow-up testing and patient feedback are crucial in this phase to ensure optimal outcomes and minimize side effects.
The choice of BHRT also often considers patient preferences and lifestyle. Some patients may opt for bioidentical hormones as they are derived from plant sources and are chemically identical to those the human body naturally produces, which might be seen as a more "natural" option.

Various forms of BHRT treatments include:
The right treatment depends on the individual's needs and the specific hormones being replaced. The treatment is highly customized and often involves regular monitoring of hormone levels and symptoms to adjust the therapy as needed for optimal effectiveness and safety.
Some proponents of BHRT claim that it offers benefits over traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT), such as fewer side effects and a lower risk of certain health conditions, these claims are still the subject of ongoing research and debate in the medical community. It's important for individuals considering BHRT to consult with a healthcare provider to discuss the potential risks and benefits, as well as to ensure that the therapy is appropriately tailored to their specific health needs.
They are derived from plant sources and are processed to precisely match the structure of hormones produced by the human body, such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. This is thought to potentially offer a more natural and tailored approach to hormone therapy, with the aim of minimizing side effects and optimizing individual health outcomes.
