What is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy?

FAQs about hormone replacement therapy
There is an overwhelming amount of information about hormone therapy available online. The savvy healthcare consumer often confronts lots of misinformation or misleading content.

Do I need hormone replacement therapy?
Women aged 35 and older who are approaching menopause tend to experience changes in their mental, emotional, and physical health as fewer hormones responsible for many bodily functions are produced naturally. By introducing more targeted hormones to the body to address imbalances, our patients notice improvements in their energy, menopausal symptoms, and libido—effectively restoring the joy and pleasure they get from day-to-day life. We also offer options for men who may be experiencing distressing symptoms brought on by decreases or imbalances in hormone levels as they age.
What hormones are typically replaced?
Our clinic practices BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy). This approach to HRT commonly targets a lack of or imbalances associated with three key hormones: estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone.
What specific symptoms does it help with?
There are many changes associated with hormonal fluctuations, especially at the onset of perimenopause and menopause. So, with BHRT, you can finally be free of mood swings, confusion, "brain fog," memory loss, chronic fatigue, hot flashes and night sweats, joint pain, vaginal dryness, insomnia and other sleep challenges, and a lack of interest in sex.
How do you administer BHRT?
Our double-board certified provider, Dr. Rachel Fidino, may recommend hormone therapy in a variety of different forms. All of these methods are designed to elevate your hormone levels. So, hormonal balance is restored, and more youthful, healthy function is supported in the least invasive manner possible.
