About Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) uses hormones (estrogen, progesterone, sometimes testosterone) with molecular structure identical to those produced by the human body. BHRT is used for menopause symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats, mood, libido, vaginal atrophy, bone loss), perimenopause, and broader hormone optimization. Delivery routes include transdermal patches and gels, oral tablets, sublingual troches, vaginal preparations, and pellets implanted in the hip area every 3-6 months.
