The growing interest in a more natural approach to hormone regulation has drawn attention to bioidentical hormones.

These hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones made in the body and are made from a plant chemical extracted from yams and soy.

Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) is often referred to as “natural hormone therapy” because these hormones act in the body just like the hormones we naturally produce. The body can’t distinguish bioidentical hormones from the ones it makes on its own.

Bioidentical hormones are FDA-approved, and diminish many of the health risks and concerns associated with common hormone replacement therapy.

BHRT is suitable for both men and women.
