Hormone decline doesn't happen overnight. Shifts in your hormone balance can start occurring as early as the 30s – yes, it’s not just a 50+ phenomenon! But to get the right treatment you need to work with Drs that individualise doses. That means testing your hormones, giving you just what you need and tweaking the dose as things change.
All too often, the conventional lens approaches the problem as: "you're either in menopause or you're not." Typically hormone tests aren't done and if you're in menopause you might get some standard HRT (bioidential or synthetic) and if you're not you might get offered a contraceptive (which are always synthetic hormone-like drugs - not hormones).
Here at London Bioidentical hormones we recognise that oestrogen and progesterone play a vital role in thousands of biological functions and its essential to support these hormones with only bioidentical hormones. Bioidentical hormones are identical to the ones your body produces naturally, which means your body knows how to use and metabolise them, and they offer benefits that synthetic hormone-like drugs don't.
We test hormones, we individualise our treatment plans and we change are prescriptions as your needs change. That means we make a difference to the people who have been told they just have to put up with it. For example progesterone deficiency for women in their 40’s is the most common hormone imbalance yet its ignored by the conventional lens.
BHRT can help relieve many symptoms associated with hormone deficiencies such as fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, memory problems, and sleeping difficulties. And because BHRT balances hormones throughout your entire body, it can also help improve overall health and well-being.
BHRT might just be your BFF during the transition into perimenopause and menopause – it's been proven to do more than just alleviate symptoms.
BHRT also reduces the risk of life-altering conditions, such as osteoporosis, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline that are in part due to low hormone levels.
