If you're struggling with hormone-related issues like weight gain, mood swings, and low energy levels, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may be worth considering. Here are three reasons why:

It can be incredibly discouraging when you try to alleviate symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and andropause by making lifestyle changes such as reducing stress, exercising more or eating healthier… but the symptoms just won’t go away.
In this case, it may be helpful to consider BHRT, which involves boosting insufficient hormone levels back to optimal levels.
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 to your mental and emotional health that synthetic hormone-like drugs simply 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 it's ignored by the conventional lens.
Hormone balance is important for both men and women as we age. Studies show that BHRT can reduce the risk of certain long-term issues like osteoporosis, heart disease, and cognitive decline that are brought on in part by hormonal deficiencies.
To properly identify if you indeed have a hormone imbalance, it’s key to find a practitioner who understands how to test hormones, has experience with BHRT, and can make all the difference in creating an effective treatment plan.
It is important to find a practitioner that offers support beyond just the treatment of hormone imbalances:
This includes looking at how lifestyle choices such as diet, stress, and environmental toxins can contribute to overall health and hormone levels.
Whether your goal is to improve how you feel or how you look, lifestyle modifications can have a huge impact on how your body looks and functions. With the right guidance from a committed practitioner, small changes can lead to a marked improvement in how you experience hormone imbalances.
