Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women

Medically supervised bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is designed to treat and correct female hormonal imbalances at the root of many physical and emotional concerns that can undermine a woman’s health and well-being at any stage of life. When properly prescribed and formulated, BHRT is an ideal way to enhance your physical health, boost your energy levels, rejuvenate your appearance, and restore your emotional outlook. At American Integrative Pharmacy, our goal is to work in close cooperation with both physician and patient to create carefully customized compounds of precisely formulated bio-identical hormone replacement supplements ideally suited to achieve each patient’s unique goals. In other words, when you work with our skilled, experienced pharmacists, you can be assured that your personalized BHRT prescription will be specifically formulated to safely and effectively maximize your treatment results!

We prepare custom compounded bioidentical hormone medications as directed by licensed healthcare practitioners. Our hormone medications are made with high quality plant-derived ingredients that are identical in structure to hormones present in the human body.

Benefits of Estrogen and Progesterone Replacement Therapy

The primary goal of bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (or BHRT) is to utilize the female hormones estrogen and/or progesterone to correct the delicate balance of hormones so necessary to a woman’s overall health. For both women and men, our hormones play a vital, and often underestimated, role in regulating our body’s natural systems to preserve homeostatic balance while stimulating crucial cellular functions required to keep our bodies working properly. Yet for women, especially, hormonal changes due to age and reproductive capabilities, in addition to numerous medical conditions, can easily wreak havoc on that delicate hormonal balance, producing undesirable consequences for our appearance, health, and general wellness.

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy using carefully compounded solutions of estrogen and/or progesterone can treat a variety of women-specific issues, including:

    • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
    • Symptoms of menopause including mood changes, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, menstrual irregularity, bone density loss, and insomnia
    • Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)
    • Symptoms of perimenopause, when female hormones levels begin to decline in anticipation of menopause

Depending upon age, stage of life, and specific medical concerns, most women can expect a number of significant benefits of bio-identical estrogen and/or progesterone replacement therapy, including (but not limited to):

    • Weight loss
    • Improved skin condition
    • Alleviation of premenstrual, perimenopausal, and menopausal symptoms
    • Increased energy levels
    • Reduction in mood swings and anxiety levels
    • Overall improvement in mood and sense of well-being
  • Improved ability to sustain concentration
  • Enhanced quality of sleep
  • Increased sex drive
  • Restored breast firmness
  • Stronger teeth and bones
  • Decreased risk for colon cancer and cardiovascular disease

 

Why Are Bio-Identical Estrogen and Progesterone Better?

Hormone replacement therapy works by restoring the correct balance of estrogen and progesterone to reduce or even eliminate the negative symptoms created by a hormonal imbalance. However, if the hormone replacement is to truly function as well as the original, the molecular composition of the replacement must closely match the original. Unfortunately, today’s synthetic hormones simply cannot exactly replicate the molecular structure of our body’s own estrogen and progesterone. Bio-identical hormones, on the other hand, have the same chemical and molecular structure as those produced by the human body, allowing a more effective replacement therapy and eliminating the potential for many negative side effects. Moreover, while traditional hormonal supplements are only available in pre-determines doses and strengths, bio-identical estrogen and progesterone can, when compounded by the specially-trained pharmacists at American Integrative Pharmacy, be customized by dose, strength, and type to ensure a more complete match with your unique anatomy.
