Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. They are synthesized from plant sources and tailored specifically to match your hormone levels and biochemistry through a process called compounding.
There are several factors that can lead to declining hormone levels, including:
- Natural decrease in sex and growth hormones over time. - Perimenopause and menopause result from ovarian failure. - Andropause stems from testicular failure.
- Pituitary tumors or damage can impact hormone production. - Other glandular disorders can cause deficiencies. - Diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, etc.
- Stress takes a toll on endocrine function over time. - Obesity is linked to hormonal imbalances. - Poor nutrition deprives glands of vital nutrients.
Bioidentical hormone replacement is beneficial for a wide variety of patients, including:
- Alleviate hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disruption, etc. - Restore bone density and cardiovascular health. - Improve skin elasticity, texture, neuropathic pain. - Reduce risk of depression, dementia, osteoporosis over time.
- Increase muscle mass, strength and endurance. - Boost libido and sexual performance. - Improve mood, cognition and vitality. - Reduce visceral fat and cardiovascular disease risk.
- Adrenal disorders like Addison's disease. - Growth hormone deficiency at any age. - Chronic illness recovery and prevention.

Delaying diagnosis and treatment of hormone deficiencies and imbalances can negatively impact health and quality of life. With hormone therapy, patients often report drastic improvements, but the sooner treatment is started, the better.
Symptoms of hormonal disorders can be nonspecific, overlapping with other conditions. Comprehensive panels like our Hormone Balance Profile are invaluable for revealing individual deficiencies.
Finding optimal hormone levels is a process - it can take months to resolve deficiency signs and maximize benefits from therapy. Starting treatment promptly minimizes complications.
