Bioidentical Hormones for Hormone Replacement

As we age, our natural, endogenous hormone levels decline. Environmental toxins, drug interactions and diet may also lower our hormones. Hormones are necessary for the body to work properly. They work as little messengers to control the function of every cell in our body.

What are Bioidentical Hormones?

These are hormones made in a lab just like other medications, yet they are identical to the molecular structure of the hormones made in your body.  Bioidentical hormones are most commonly ordered by your physician through a reputable compounding Pharmacy. Large drug companies do make a variety of bio-identicals yet they come in standard dosing. Compounding pharmacies are critical partners in treating patients as individuals and providing customized, individualized care. Each patient is then monitored to achieve perfect hormonal balance. We replace only what you are missing thus supporting the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology guidance to treat with the lowest effective dose for the shortest time.
