Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

What is BHRT?
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a natural approach to restoring
hormonal balance in the body. Hormones play a crucial role in regulating various
functions and processes within our body, such as metabolism, mood, sleep, and
reproduction. However, factors such as aging, stress, and chronic health conditions can
disrupt this delicate hormonal balance, leading to a range of symptoms and imbalances.
Hormonal imbalances may look like constant fatigue, brain fog, memory loss, sleep
irregularities, weight gain, mood changes, decreased sex drive, low motivation, anxiety,
depression, and many more.
BHRT involves the use of hormones that are structurally identical to the ones naturally produced by our bodies. These bio-identical hormones are derived from natural sources, such as plants, and are carefully formulated to match the molecular structure of the hormones your body produces. By using bio-identical hormones, we aim to mimic the body's natural hormone levels and functions more closely.
Unlike synthetic hormones, bio-identical hormones are believed to offer advantages in terms of safety and effectiveness. They are thought to be more easily metabolized and utilized by the body, minimizing the risk of side effects associated with synthetic hormones.
Before recommending BHRT, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation that includes a thorough medical intake, symptom overview, and laboratory testing to assess your hormone levels from a functional perspective. A functional perspective involves screening all sex hormones and their precursors, and looking at optimal ranges for your unique body.
Based on this assessment, an individualized treatment plan is created to address your specific needs. The bio-identical hormones are prescribed in precise doses to restore
hormonal balance, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall well-being. We prioritize your safety and closely monitor your progress throughout the treatment, making necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results.
In addition to prescribing bio-identical hormones, we also incorporate lifestyle modifications, targeted supplementation, nutritional support, and other natural therapies to optimize your hormonal balance and overall health.
