Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy uses hormones that are structurally identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body. These hormones are used to help restore balance and reduce symptoms caused by hormonal imbalances, aging, perimenopause, menopause, or low testosterone.

Many patients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks, with continued improvement over the first few months. Everyone responds differently, and results depend on your individual hormone levels and overall health.

Bioidentical hormone therapy is considered safe for many patients when appropriately prescribed and monitored by a medical provider. We take a comprehensive, individualized approach and closely monitor your progress to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Treatment options may include:

• Creams
• Injections
• Oral medications
• Supplements
• Other personalized options

Your provider will recommend the best option based on your goals, symptoms, and lab results.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is not intended to serve as birth control and may affect fertility depending on the type of hormones used and your individual situation. Some women may still ovulate while on hormone therapy, meaning pregnancy is still possible. If you are trying to conceive or wish to preserve fertility, it's important to discuss this with your provider so we can tailor your treatment plan appropriately and discuss safe options.
