Overview of Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHRT)
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy, or BHRT, uses hormones chemically identical to what the human body produces to treat hormone imbalances and perimenopause and menopause-related symptoms.
The three most commonly used hormones for BHRT are Bi-est (a formulation of two estrogens: estradiol and estriol), progesterone, and testosterone.
Understanding Bioidentical Hormone Therapy and Its Benefits
Many women experience hormone imbalances or deficiencies at some point in their lives. Symptoms related to shifting hormones can start as early as 20 and can intensify during perimenopause, while menopause symptoms can persist well into a woman’s 60s. Perimenopause and menopause can begin naturally with age, by surgical removal of the ovaries, or as a result of stress, poor nutrition, thyroid disorders, medications, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
BHRT helps restore hormone levels to a more balanced state, which helps regulate key functions in the body and ease bothersome symptoms. When properly dosed and monitored, Bi-est, progesterone, and testosterone are effective hormones to achieve this.
- Bi-est helps to alleviate symptoms of low estrogen common in menopause, such as hot flashes, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, vaginal dryness, and thinning of skin and nails.
- Progesterone helps alleviate symptoms of low progesterone common in perimenopause, such as irritability, insomnia, anxiety, low mood, irregular periods, bloating, and painful periods.
- Testosterone helps alleviate symptoms of low testosterone, such as a decrease in sex drive, lack of passion and vitality, bone loss, and a decrease in mental acuity.
Additional Benefits of BioIdentical Hormone Therapy
One of the best features of BHRT is its flexibility. Because dosages of Bi-est, progesterone, and testosterone can be easily formulated for each patient, doses can be adjusted in small increments. This allows customizable treatment that meets symptoms, life changes, and changing hormone levels without dramatic shifts in how you feel.
Being able to fine-tune bioidentical hormones often leads to better outcomes. It also means fewer side effects because BHRT supports hormone levels that match the body’s natural rhythms.
What Sets Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Apart
- Hormones used are identical to what is produced in the human body.
- Dosage typically used in BHRT is usually lower than traditional HRT.
- Testing and therapy is designed to maximize positive outcomes and reduce potential risks associated with hormone replacement therapy.
Why choose BioIdentical Hormone Therapy
Bioidentical hormones are molecularly identical to the hormones the human body produces naturally. Because formulas can be more precise with BHRT, this means dosing can sometimes be lower than traditional hormone therapies.
Providers use lab testing, monitoring, and regular check-ins to create a plan. The goal is always to provide optimal symptom relief and minimize risks and side effects for short-term comfort and long-term health.
When paired with a comprehensive health plan that includes nutrition, exercise, and stress management, BHRT can have a significant impact on quality of life.
Is BHRT Right for Me?
If you’re experiencing symptoms related to hormone imbalances, perimenopause, or menopause, you know how frustrating it can be. But hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, mood changes, low libido, and fatigue don’t have to disrupt daily life. Bioidentical hormones can help provide great relief from symptoms like these, and when tailored to your unique hormone levels and needs, can improve energy and restore balance. Especially when paired with a healthy lifestyle, BHRT can be an important part of helping you feel like yourself again.
