Aging can be a scary prospect. In addition to the general stress and pains of growing old, we go through a number of physical and mental changes. For women, menopause is a major concern while men deal with andropause and low testosterone.
Many age-related issues are the result of hormone unbalance. Your body has a complex collection of glands called the endocrine system. Each of these glands generates crucial hormones, such as testosterone, estrogen (oestrogen) and progesterone. Excessive or reduced levels of these hormones can wreak havoc on your system.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, or BHRT, is the only safe, natural solution to hormonal imbalance.
What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
BHRT is a way to fight aging and balance your hormones. It does this with the use of biologically identical hormones.
This makes BHRT a better choice than conventional hormone replacement therapy, which uses synthetic hormones.
The natural hormones used in BHRT can be administered with a number of delivery methods.
They include: Pills, Injections, Pellets, Creams, Gels and Skin patches
It's important to note that a provider typically won't utilize all of these hormone delivery methods. The best one for a given situation depends on the needs of the patient and the preference of provider. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy generally falls in to two categories: BHRT for Women and BHRT for men.
