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.”
