BHRT
BHRT stands for Bioidentical Hormone Replacement therapy, also known as natural hormone replacement. The hormones are derived from plant sources -yam and soy. Once they are extracted from their natural source, these hormones are refined so that they are identical to the human hormone molecule.
BHRT fits the body's receptor like a key in a lock. Our bodies contain the right enzymes to break down and metabolize these hormones properly and efficiently, directing them to the proper receptor sites. The idea of BHRT is to maintain proper hormone balance.
Why are these Hormones Bioidentical?
Bioidentical means that the chemical structure of the replacement hormone is identical in structure and function to that of the hormone naturally found in the human body. Bioidentical Hormones follow normal metabolic pathways and are easily excreted. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement is used to balanced our hormones during perimenopause, menopause, andropause (male). Hormones can be deficient or in excess, causing symptoms of depression, obesity, anxiety, low energy, insomnia and more. Balancing Hormones is the best way to benefit from preventive medicine and enjoy optimal health.
