Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones produced naturally in the human body. They are synthesized from plant sources and customized to match each patient's needs through compounding. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are biochemically equivalent to endogenous human hormones, meaning they can bind to hormone receptors in the body and elicit the same effects as naturally occurring hormones. Some of the most commonly prescribed bioidentical hormones include:
Bioidentical hormones provide many benefits when used to correct hormonal deficiencies and imbalances.
For women, BHRT can:
For men, testosterone and DHEA replacement can:
Bioidentical hormones are designed to mimic the function of hormones produced by the ovaries and testes before these glands slow hormone production due to aging.
When administered in the proper dosages, bioidentical estrogens, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA supplement the body's natural circulating hormones that may be declining. This helps alleviate troubling symptoms of hormone imbalance and restore optimal hormone levels.
Bioidentical hormones are available in various forms including pills, creams, gels, injectable pellets, and transdermal patches. This allows doctors to customize treatment plans with the most appropriate method of hormone delivery.
Treatment begins with blood tests to evaluate each patient's hormone levels. Doses can then be adjusted based on follow-up lab work and symptom monitoring. Ongoing medical supervision is crucial for safe and effective bioidentical hormone replacement.
