Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, our hormone levels decline causing undesirable symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones with bioidenticals can help alleviate symptoms and promote better health.
Bioidentical hormones are man-made forms of hormones that are exact matches to those produced naturally in the human body. This includes estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA and others. They are typically derived from plant sources and are made by compounding pharmacies to meet individual patient needs.
Bioidentical hormones act in the body just like naturally produced hormones, meaning they offer the following advantages:
Synthetic hormones like those found in birth control pills and conventional hormone replacement therapies do not match human hormones molecularly so do not offer these benefits.
The most common administration methods for bioidentical hormones include:
The route taken depends on the hormone, dosage, and patient comfort/preference. Our practitioners will determine the optimal approach.
Hormone levels naturally decline with age, sometimes leading to deficiency symptoms. Proper testing and timely bioidentical hormone therapy can help alleviate symptoms.

This hormone works synergistically with estradiol to regulate the menstrual cycle and support pregnancy. Declining progesterone can lead to symptoms like anxiety, sleep disruption, and weight gain.
Testosterone, while considered a male hormone, is important for both sexes related to sex drive, energy levels, muscle tone and mood stability. We safely replace testosterone in deficient patients.
DHEA is a precursor our bodies use to produce other key hormones. Supplementing DHEA can enhance energy, immunity, brain function, mood and metabolic factors.
