Are there adverse effects when using natural hormones?
top As with any change in body chemistry, changes in hormone levels, even natural, can bring side effects. In the vast majority of cases, these symptoms are temporary. For example, women seeking to alleviate symptoms of menopause will often come to us experiencing hot flashes, headaches, difficulty sleeping, and other symptoms. Upon beginning the natural hormone replacement therapy, some said that they experienced headaches during the first month of therapy but afterward had no problems. Others said they felt immediately relieved and experienced no adverse effects. The experience is unique to each patient. To combat these symptoms, our pharmacists continually assess your symptoms and make adjustments to your regimen of hormones. For the majority of our patients, after 3 months of therapy and assesment, they were on a regimen that they felt alleviated all symptoms.
