Why Bio-Identical Hormones?

Only the right hormone key fits the receptor lock to the cellular functions it regulates. A non-identical key, such as a synthetic hormone, can't open the same doors or switches—only the natural hormone has the master key to the controls.

Bioidentical hormones are manufactured in a lab to have the same molecular structure as the hormones made by your own body. Synthetic hormones, manufactured by pharmaceutical companies, are structured to be patentable (you can't patent a bio-identical structure).

Bioidentical hormones are compounded in pharmacies to meet the specific requirements of each individual patient. Synthetic hormones are manufactured in one-size-fits-most dosages.

Bioidentical Hormone Controversy
While the ability to formulate an exact dosage for an individual using bioidentical hormones is preferred over the one-size-fits-all approach of the stronger synthetic hormones, you must consider that hormones are a drug. We never recommend that anyone consider that any drug is ever completely safe.

We approach our patients' health and wellness with a wholistic approach. We highly encourage healthy eating and supplementation, exercise, stress relief, sleep, and other lifestyle changes first. Any bioidentical hormone replacement is then as a complement to those lifestlye changes, and never the only support. Our patients are treated as individuals, taking into account their history, current conditions and symptoms, and lifestyle.

If you have several of the symptoms on the Hormone Imbalance Symptom List, call us today to book your appointment to get back into balance and start living your life feeling better!
