Bioidentical hormones are hormones that are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. They are derived from plant sources and are bioengineered to be biologically equivalent to endogenous human hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Unlike synthetic hormones, which can produce unwanted side effects, bioidentical hormones are natural and act in the body just like your own hormones. When prescribed and monitored properly by a trained bioidentical hormone specialist, they can safely and effectively treat hormone deficiency symptoms.
As we get older, we produce fewer essential hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA. This age-related decline in hormones is a natural part of aging, but can result in some undesirable effects, including:
The doctors at Balance Hormone Center have extensive experience using bioidentical hormone replacement to eliminate troublesome hormone deficiency symptoms and help patients feel their best. We customize treatment plans with the optimal types and dosages of bioidentical hormones based on your unique needs and hormone levels.
Restoring your hormone balance through bioidentical HRT provides a wide array of health benefits:
For women going through menopause, balancing declining estrogen and progesterone with bioidentical estradiol and progesterone can provide immense relief from hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and other menopausal woes.
Balancing hormones with bioidentical testosterone and DHEA has been shown to significantly improve mood, boost energy levels, and enhance mental acuity. Patients often describe feeling much sharper, more motivated and "like my old self again."
Estrogen has protective effects on cardiovascular health and bone density. Bioidentical estrogen replacement can help lower the risk of developing osteoporosis and reduce the chances of heart disease for women.
By reducing unpleasant symptoms and improving energy, sleep, libido and cognition, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can profoundly enhance overall quality of life for both women and men as they age.
Prescription bioidentical hormones offer major advantages over synthetic hormone replacement:
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those produced naturally in the body. Studies show they effectively relieve menopause symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings. However, there is limited data on their long-term safety compared to traditional hormone therapy. More research is needed to fully understand the risks and benefits.
The physicians at Balance Hormone Center are leading experts in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Our doctors stay current on all of the latest research and understand the nuanced physiology of hormone balance.
We take time to listen to your symptoms and health goals, then order detailed lab testing to properly diagnose any hormone imbalances. By precisely identifying deficiencies, we can develop a customized treatment approach to help you feel your best and optimize wellbeing.

Bioidentical hormones are hormones that are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. They are derived from plant sources and are customized by compounding pharmacists to match the hormone levels of each individual patient. Bioidentical hormones include estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and others.
Bioidentical hormones work just like the hormones our bodies produce - they bind to hormone receptors and stimulate normal responses. For example, bioidentical estrogen binds to estrogen receptors and can help relieve common symptoms of menopause like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood changes. The key benefit is they are biochemically identical to our natural hormones.
When prescribed and monitored appropriately by a trained medical professional like myself, bioidentical hormones can be a safe and effective option. I carefully evaluate each patient’s needs and risks to create a customized treatment plan. The dose and delivery method is tailored to the individual. I regularly check hormone levels and adjust as needed.
As an experienced hormone therapy specialist, I use bioidentical hormones to treat hormone imbalances and deficiencies that occur with menopause, perimenopause, and andropause. They can effectively treat symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, mood changes, and sleep disturbances.
The key benefits are relief of symptoms, improved quality of life, and reduced risk of certain diseases. When prescribed properly, research shows bioidentical hormones can help protect bone health, heart health, brain function, and more. Patients report improved energy, sleep, sex drive, emotional wellbeing and an overall enhanced sense of vitality. As a leading hormone therapy provider, I've seen these benefits firsthand.
