Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) for Women

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a medically supervised, evidence-based treatment backed by the medical literature.  This type of treatment matches the body’s natural hormones at the molecular level. This allows our patients to receive maximal benefit of their treatments while minimizing side-effects. It is designed to restore hormonal balance in women experiencing perimenopause and menopause, PCOS and PMS as well as low thyroid symptoms. Prescribed and closely monitored by a qualified physician, BHRT utilizes hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the human body, most commonly estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA and thyroid.

Hormonal fluctuations and eventual hormone decline during the menopausal transition can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats

  • Mood swings, irritability and apathy

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Fatigue and decreased energy

  • Brain fog or memory issues

  • Weight gain and slowed metabolism

  • Vaginal dryness and decreased libido

At the same time, loss of our hormones means loss of their protection against bone density loss, cognitive decline, cardiovascular disease, macular degeneration, metabolic diseases like weight gain, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.  When personalized and professionally managed, BHRT can significantly alleviate or eliminate symptoms, enhance quality of life and support long-term health.

Physician oversight is essential to ensure safe and effective treatments tailored to an individual’s needs. Our comprehensive approach will include:

  • Detailed medical history and symptom evaluation

  • Laboratory testing to measure baseline hormone levels

  • Ongoing lab monitoring

  • Custom dosing and titration based on clinical response, symptom tracking and lab values

  • Regular follow-up visits with symptom and lab monitoring for dose adjustments

  • Evaluation and ongoing monitoring of additional health markers (cardiovascular, metabolic, and bone health)

  • Adjustments as needed over time

When appropriately prescribed and monitored over time, physician prescribed BHRT can provide:

  • Potential protective effects for heart and metabolic health 

  • Improved sleep and mood stability

  • Reduced frequency and intensity of hot flashes and night sweats (and in many cases, they disappear)

  • Enhanced cognitive clarity and memory

  • Increased energy and libido

  • Support for bone density and muscle mass

  • Improved skin elasticity and overall vitality

Every woman’s experience with menopause is unique. A personalized BHRT plan which is developed and overseen by a knowledgeable physician can be a safe and effective way to manage symptoms and support overall health and longevity.
