What is Hormone Therapy For Women?

Millions of women going through Menopause have found relief through Bioidentical Hormone Replacment (BHRT)

Millions of women going through Menopause have found relief through Bioidentical Hormone Replacement (BHRT). BHRT uses hormones that are nearly identical to the natural hormones produced by the body to correct hormone imbalances that lead to menopause and perimenopause.

A physician will typically prescribe BHRT to relieve symptoms of menopause, perimenopause, and premenstrual syndrome. The way it works is that Bioidentical Hormones will be used in the body so the body can metabolize them naturally for safe treatment of menopause, perimenopause, and premenstrual syndrome.

Women will typically begin to see the effects of menopause in their mid to late 40s. The symptoms, which include an irregular and varied menstrual cycle and decreased fertility, typically last about four to six years. Every woman will begin to experience menopause naturally as they reach their 50s. This happens as the natural production of estrogen and progesterone begins to diminish and the egg supply starts to disappear. Perimenopause is the decline in ovarian hormone production as a woman reaches her golden years. The female body begins to move away from baby-making.

Some of the benefits of BHRT for women include:

  • Treats menopause symptoms
  • Restoration of hormonal balance and bone density
  • No more hot flashes
  • Improved sleep
  • Fights against heart disease, breast cancer, joint pain, and the overall aging process
  • Supports muscle strength, memory, stamina, and skin elasticity
  • Enhances libido and energy levels
  • Reduces risk of Alzheimer’s
  • Promotes fat burning and lean muscle mass
  • Treats depression
  • Improves blood flow and blood sugar levels
