HORMONES & THE BODY

+ Convenient Telemedicine Personalized Quality Care

Your hormones control most of your basic bodily functions. They serve as an internal communication system between cells throughout the body. They coordinate everything from digestion and growth to your appetite, immune function, mood, and libido. So, when your hormones are out of balance, even slightly, it can have a big impact on your health and well-being.

Often, when people’s hormones drop or become unbalanced, they turn to hormone replacement therapies to ease symptoms. One such therapy, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), has gotten a lot of attention in recent years. It promises a “natural” solution to hormone issues. But what exactly is BHRT, and how is it different from other hormone replacement therapies?

BHRT can be used to treat men and women when their hormone levels drop or become unbalanced. It’s most frequently used to ease symptoms of perimenopause, menopause and low testosterone. It may also be used to improve symptoms of cancer treatment or to treat conditions such as:

INSULIN RESISTANCE

ADRENAL & THYROID DISORDERS

OSTEOPOROSIS

FIBROMYALGIA

BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES

Bioidentical hormones are man-made hormones derived from plant sterols that are chemically identical to those the human body produces. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are among those most commonly replicated and used in treatment. Bioidentical hormones come in various forms, including:

PILLS

PATCHES

CREAMS

GELS

INJECTIONS
