Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

Bioidentical hormore replacement therapy is administered to maintain optimal hormone levels.

As men and women age, hormone levels decline. This causes significant changes in the body, including low energy, weight gain, difficulty sleeping, and loss of libido. BHRT helps alleviate these symptoms while reducing the risk of many diseases associated with aging.

More importantly, hormone therapy helps men and women reduce the risks of many of the diseases associated with aging, including cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, stroke and senility.

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy will not reverse aging. The goal of natural hormone therapy is to maintain sound levels of hormones to alleviate symptoms and reduce the risks of acquiring many of the diseases associated with aging. The benefits of BHRT include increased energy, weight loss, diminished difficulty of sleeping and improved libido.

Unlike bioidentical hormones, many of the commonly prescribed synthetic hormones introduce foreign substances that produce toxic by-products, which can cause a wide array of side effects and more serious conditions such as an increased risk of cancer and heart disease. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is safe and free of the risks associated with synthetic hormones.
