Hormones are vital to your overall health and well-being. They control every major system within your body.
But with age, the production of important hormones like estrogen and testosterone diminishes. The result can be unpleasant symptoms (like fatigue and low sex drive), as well as increased risk factors for the various ailments associated with getting older (like cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis).
Unlike previous generations, men and women of today need not suffer from symptoms of hormone imbalance. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can restore hormones to healthy levels, thereby alleviating symptoms and enhancing health overall.
BHRT Restores Balance and Function
Properly balanced hormones are necessary for good health.
But age-related hormone decline disrupts this delicate balance. The result can be symptoms such as insomnia, weight gain, mood swings, hot flashes, and sexual dysfunction.
BHRT uses hormones that are molecularly identical to those produced by the body, ensuring that they work within your body just as your body’s naturally produced hormones would.
BHRT Is Tailored to Your Individual Needs
One of the most important advantages of properly administered BHRT is its personalized nature. Whereas traditional hormone therapies (particularly those utilizing synthetic hormones) have historically been prescribed on a one-size-fits-all basis, bioidentical hormone protocols (when done properly) are customized to accommodate each patient’s unique physiological needs. This tailored approach ensures that treatment will be more targeted, thereby achieving good symptom relief while at the same time avoiding side effects.
BHRT Improves Libido and Sexual Function
A healthy sex life is important for quality of life overall. The bottom line is that everyone deserves to have a satisfying sex life for their entire life.
However, age-related hormone imbalances can cause both men and women to experience a decline in libido and sexual function.
BHRT can reverse these imbalances, helping to improve erectile function in men, vaginal health in women, and libido for both genders.
BHRT Supports Bone Health
Men and women can both lose bone density as hormone production diminishes, increasing the risk for osteoporosis and bone fractures. BHRT reduces these risks by restoring hormones to healthy levels, thereby strengthening bones and making them less fracture prone.
BHRT Boosts Cognitive Function
Your brain needs balanced hormones for optimal cognitive function. Age-related hormone decline—particularly the loss of estrogen—can contribute to memory loss and cognitive impairment.
BHRT supports healthy cognitive function and reduces risk factors for age-related cognitive decline.
BHRT Improves Mood and Emotional Well-being
Mood swings, anxiety, depression, and irritability have all been linked to age-related hormone imbalances.
By restoring hormonal equilibrium, BHRT has been shown to improve mood and emotional well-being. BHRT patients often report feeling more emotionally stable, resilient, and better equipped to cope with life’s daily challenges.
BHRT Minimizes Cardiovascular Disease Risk
Hormones play a crucial role in cardiovascular health. As hormones decline, the risk for cardiovascular disease increases.
BHRT can ensure that you continue to have adequate levels of important cardio-protective hormones as you age.
