Bio-Identical Hormone
Replacement Therapy
Natural hormones are produced from vegetable sources
and are Bio-Identical (chemically identical in
structure) to the hormones produces by the human
body. Taking a natural hormone supplement, to
restore a hormone already present in the body to an
appropriate level, will cause no negative side
effects, which is the beauty of Bio-Identical
Hormone Replacement Therapy. Bio-identical hormones
are manufactured to have the same molecular
structure as the hormones made by your own body. By
contrast, synthetic hormones are intentionally
different. Drug companies can’t patent a
Bio-identical structure, so they invent synthetic
hormones that are patentable (Premarin, Prempro and
Provera being the most widely used examples).
Though Bio-Identical hormones
have been around for years, most doctors are
unfamiliar with them. Bio-Identical Hormone
Replacement Therapy is a treatment tailored
specifically for each individual by the physician,
and the prescription is then formulated by a
compounding pharmacist.
Are your hormones in balance?
Hormones are a big concern for
women (PMS, Post-partum depression, and menopause).
A simple saliva test measures four key hormones for
women or men. Our Staff can do testing to
determine if you need a natural or prescription
strength
Bio-identical hormone replacement. We have
seen great success with an individualized approach.
We now inherently know that
replacing something with an exact duplicate of what
should be present is the best choice. This can help
you get back to feeling positive and healthy on the
inside.
