Bio-identical Hormones (BHRT) are an alternative to synthetic hormones for women who suffer from hot flashes, night sweats, poor sleep, reduced libido, and weight gain.
“BHRT are different,” says Dr. Randy Birken, founder of Birken Medical Aesthetics. “With bioidentical hormones, a physician can look at blood levels of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, as well as the metabolic hormones. Deficiencies are restored to an optimal level producing significant clinical improvement.”
While BHRT may not be safer than synthetic, intuitively they may be, since the body recognizes the molecule as biologically identical to natural hormone production.
“They may not be for every woman, but when traditional hormones don’t work, it’s a great alternative.”
