Hormone Replacement
Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Menopause and Hormone ReplacementBio-identical hormones are manufactured to have the same molecular structure as the hormones produced by your own body. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy can help relieve the symptoms associated with early menopause, menopause, peri-menopause and andropause (the male menopause).
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy can help relieve the following symptoms:
- Hot Flashes
- Night Sweats
- Memory Loss
- Mood Swings
- Weight Gain
- Low Libido
- Hair Loss in Women
Bio-identical hormones are natural, and our bodies can metabolize them as they are designed to do; minimizing side-effects. Synthetic hormones such as Provera®, Premarin®, Prempro®, and Estrace® are quite strong and often produce intolerable side-effects. Compounded bio-identical hormones can be matched to each woman’s individual needs — something that’s impossible with mass-produced products.
Hormone Replacement for Men
Andropause (Male Menopause)The condition known as male menopause (andropause) is caused by a decline in male hormones such as testosterone, thyroid, human growth hormone (HGH) and DHEA. For years, doctors focused on woman’s hormonal needs and developed female specific hormone replacement therapy. But now the medical community has discovered male menopause and the fact that every male will experience it.
4 out of 5 men over the age of 40 experience symptoms of low hormone levels.

More on bio-identical hormone replacement.
Bio-identical hormones have the exact same molecular structure as those made in the human body. In other words, the two are indistinguishable from each other. Bio-identical hormones produce the same physiologic responses as those of endogenous(bodies natural hormones) hormones.The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers bio-identical hormones to be natural regardless of their source.
