Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) involves using hormones that are molecularly identical to those naturally produced by the human body. BHRT is used to supplement declining hormone levels related to aging and other medical conditions. The goal of treatment is to bring hormone levels back to an optimal balance and alleviate unwanted symptoms.
Some key uses of bioidentical hormone therapy include:
- Treating symptoms of menopause in women - Common menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irritability, anxiety, and sleep disturbances can be managed with bioidentical estrogens and progesterone. BHRT helps stabilize hormone levels and provide relief.
- Improving sexual function and desire - Declining testosterone levels can lead to low libido, erectile dysfunction, and reduced sexual pleasure. Bioidentical testosterone therapy can effectively improve sexual function and satisfaction.
- Supporting bone, brain, heart, and metabolic health - Balancing hormone levels plays an important role in maintaining bone density, cognitive function, cardiovascular health, weight management, and much more as we age. BHRT can promote overall wellness.
- Alleviating depression and mood disorders - Imbalanced estrogen and testosterone levels have been linked to depression and anxiety. BHRT can stabilize mood and relieve related mental health issues.
