The first step toward bioidentical HRT is diagnosing any hormonal deficiencies through comprehensive lab testing. Accurately measuring circulating hormone levels reveals which hormones need balancing with bioidentical replacements.

Working with an experienced hormone specialist ensures proper testing and accurate diagnosis of any hormonal imbalances.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report preferring them because they more closely mimic the body's natural hormones. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to synthetic hormones.

We recommend all hormone patients incorporate healthy lifestyle choices to enhance treatment results including:
Combining bioidentical HRT with positive lifestyle changes maximizes benefits.
Natural hormone production declines with age. Deficiencies also result from chronic stress, poor diet, inactivity, toxins and health conditions. Genetic factors can also play a role.
Treatment is most effective when started shortly after deficiencies develop. This provides optimal symptom relief and health protection rather than allowing ongoing deterioration.
Most patients report significant improvements in energy, sleep, mood, mental clarity and additional areas within 1-2 months. Maximum benefits accrue over 3-6 months for most people.
There are minimal risks involved when treatment is customized under the guidance of an experienced hormone specialist. Follow-up testing and monitoring ensures optimal dosing for symptom relief without complications.
