BioIdentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
“Bioidentical” hormones are defined as substances that have exactly the same chemical and molecular structure as hormones that are produced in the human body.
​
Hormone replacement is very helpful for women going through perimenopause or menopause, as It can dramatically improve symptoms such as hot flashes, difficulty sleeping, anxiety, mood swings and cognitive changes, like ‘brain fog.’
