Are Bio-Identical Hormones better than Synthetic Hormones in the treatment of menopause?
ABSOLUTELY. Bio-Identical Hormones are exact replicas to those hormones already produced by your body. Synthetic hormones have been chemically altered, and are not identical in structure or activity to those they are trying to replace. Synthetic hormones are very potent and can produce side effects that are often intolerable or can make some of the symptoms of menopause worse. Bio-Identical Hormones are easily metabolized by our bodies and are a much more natural alternative. More importantly, compounded Bio-Identical Hormones can be customized to meet the need of each woman instead of the “one size fits all” practice that is seen with commercially available products. If you, or someone you know, have a question regarding Bio-Identical hormone replacement, please call us and see what we can do for you.
