Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy 

What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?

As we grow older, our bodies naturally produce lower levels of hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. An imbalance in these hormones can lead to a variety of symptoms.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) involves using hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body to address hormonal imbalances. It is commonly administered to restore optimal hormone levels and alleviate symptoms associated with menopause,
