For some people, menopause might mean a loss of appetite or mild mood changes. For others, symptoms might prevent them from enjoying life. Hormone imbalance ranges differently for each individual person, and it’s not genetic. You might experience entirely different changes from the ones your mother went through. Menopause can include:

• Anxiety and mood swings
• Inability to sleep
• Weight fluctuations
• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Thinning hair
• Vaginal dryness
• Painful intercourse
• Headaches and migraines

How does Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) work?

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are identical on the molecular level to the hormones in your body to restore a more youthful balance.

These hormones are developed in a laboratory, are derived from plant-based compounds, and are structured the same way the hormones in your body are. Commonly replicated hormones include estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, and they can treat both men and women.

If you choose to undergo Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy, your hormone levels are tested throughout the hormone therapy process to determine the proper balance to keep you safe and are adjusted as needed.

What results can I expect after undergoing Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy can help improve energy levels and sleep patterns within a few weeks. Other changes may take longer to take effect, such as increased sexual drive and hair regrowth. Each person has different hormonal needs, however, and the team will work with you to optimize your course of treatment.
