What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?

In short, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is a treatment process where your provider replaces hormones to restore balance. BHRT is most frequently used in patients with Perimenopause, Menopause, and Andropause (often called male menopause). 


However, BHRT is also commonly used by people with medical conditions in which hormone levels are affected or thrown off balance, which might be fibromyalgia, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, autoimmune diseases, insulin resistance, adrenal dysfunction, and others that diminish the quality of life.

Since hormones exist in a delicate balance, sometimes it is not enough to simply boost levels through medicine to balance hormones. They should be carefully manipulated and constantly monitored so that the levels of the hormones you need are in balance with the ratios of other hormones. When it comes to our Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, the most common hormones that are examined and managed include:

  • Estrogen
  • Progesterone
  • Testosterone
  • Testosterone
  • Human growth hormone
  • Thyroid
  • Cortisol
  • Epinephrine
  • Epinephrine

 

While not all of these are commonly administered, they are important to consider as the hormonal balance in your body is like a perfect symphony.
