![]() Who Needs Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy? Any woman who has experienced osteoporosis, heart disease, endometriosis, PMS, peri-menopausal symptoms, weight gain, low libido, fibrocystic breasts. Millions of women who are concerned about aging must decide whether or not to undergo synthetic hormone replacement therapy - and suffer its side effects and increased risks of cancer. As we consider the benefit to risk ratio, we must take into account new evidence and ongoing research about alternatives to traditional therapy. Women have traditionally used estrogen
supplements to protect against osteoporosis and heart disease. We have now learned
and proven clinically that natural hormones can actually rebuild bone tissue with no known
side effects as have been experienced with estrogen and ERG. For example, in June of
1995, the New England Journal of Medicine published a study by the highly respected
Harvard Researcher, Dr. Graham Colditz, which showed that women who use estrogen for more
than five years have 46% higher risk of breast cancer than women who don't use it.
Dr. Colditz is a world authority on this subject, and his results came from a sample of
more than 121,700 women tracked for 24 years from the famous Nurses Health Study.
Why not take a more natural course and use a natural hormone compound prepared
specifically for you? This course of therapy makes a lot more sense, especially
knowing that natural hormones have been clinically proven to be safe. What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy? Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) means that the chemical makeup of the replacement hormone is exactly the same as what the body produces. The ideal natural substances for hormone replacement therapy are readily available. Bio-identical plant-derived estrogen and progesterone products have been safely prescribed by European physicians for over 50 years. These natural hormones are almost entirely without the side effects of the synthetic or semisynthetic HRT drugs which are needed for the body to function at full potential. Various dosage forms can be compounded to meet the specific therapy for each woman. There are many unique formulations to meet each woman's specific need. We Welcome Your Questions!
