Understanding the Purpose of HRT
What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) restores optimal hormone levels that naturally decline with age or due to health conditions. For women, therapy may include estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, all vital for mood, metabolism, energy, and sexual health.
HRT for Women and Men
- Women: Supports balance during perimenopause and menopause to ease hot flashes, fatigue, and mood changes.
- Men: Helps address low testosterone (andropause), improving energy, focus, and libido.
By restoring hormones to optimal levels, HRT supports total-body wellness for both men and women.
Natural Origins of Bioidentical Hormones
What Are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are derived from natural plant sources such as wild yams or soy and are chemically identical to the hormones your body naturally produces.
Bioidentical vs. FDA-Approved Synthetic Hormones
