Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy

As women enter their 40’s and 50’s, their hormone levels begin to fluctuate and eventually decline, possibly causing symptoms, including:

  • Hot Flashes / Night Sweats
  • Loss of Libido
  • Trouble Sleeping
  • Mood Swings / Irritability
  • Irregular Periods
  • Weight Gain
  • Vaginal Dryness

 

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may be the key to help relieve these symptoms and help you feel like yourself again.  With a customized approach to hormone therapy, your hormone levels are precisely determined and the ideal replacement protocol is used to bring your hormones back to their proper balance.

The precise components of each person’s therapy need to be determined after physical examination, medical history, symptoms, and laboratory testing are considered.  Hormone levels can be measured by using saliva hormone testing or blood levels.

These tests measure your hormone levels and can indicate whether or not they are in balance.  By studying these results, our trained and knowledgeable pharmacists determine the best formulations of BHRT to compound for you.  Then, with your healthcare provider’s prescription, MCSP can begin formulating your compound.

In order to help women better understand hormone replacement therapy, our pharmacists address your questions and concerns about menopause and the bio-identical hormone replacement options by providing personal hormone consultations. They will work with your physician in providing you with an individualized therapy regimen.

Bio-Identical Hormones vs. Non-Bio-Identical Hormones

Bio-identical hormones are hormones that are derived from natural plant material, such as the soybean or the wild yam that are chemically identical to those produced in our bodies.  

MCSP uses the highest quality ingredients when compounding any hormone replacement therapy.  The alternative to bio-identical is synthetic which may have a different chemical structure that what is produced by your body. 

These chemical differences can mean that that the synthetic hormone may act differently in your body and produce unwanted long-term effects.  

Because bio-identical hormones are chemically and structurally identical to the hormones our bodies produce, the goal in BHRT is to achieve a hormone balance that will allow the patient to feel his or her best.
