Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Although marketed as "natural," the bioidentical hormones are chemically altered in a lab to be identical to human hormones. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to conventional hormone therapy.
Those experiencing unpleasant menopause symptoms or andropause in men can benefit. Individuals looking to ease effects of aging, reduce disease risk, enhance quality of life or improve body composition may also consider treatment.
Symptom relief can occur within weeks but full benefits develop over 3-6 months as optimal hormone levels stabilize. Patience allows hormones to equilibrate. We tailor protocols to suit needs.
Extensive research confirms treatment is safe when properly monitored by a trained professional. We use the lowest doses to gently restore balance without excess. Side effects are rare if hormone levels are ideal.
