Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Plant-derived hormones identical to what your body produces, prescribed to relieve menopause and perimenopause symptoms.
How Does Bioidentical HRT Work?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy uses hormones that are plant-derived and structurally identical to the hormones your body naturally produces — estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Bioidentical hormones match the molecular structure of the hormones your body produces, and treatment is tailored to your labs and symptoms. Both FDA-approved and compounded bioidentical options exist, and each carries risks as well as benefits — your provider will walk through them with you before anything is prescribed.
The 2002 Women’s Health Initiative study scared an entire generation away from HRT, and later research has added important nuance to its findings. Modern evidence supports hormone replacement for many patients, and many experience significant improvement in their symptoms.
What Symptoms Does BHRT Treat?
What Happens During Your Visit?
Initial Consultation
Your first visit is up to a full hour. We’ll review your symptoms, health history, current medications, and discuss your goals. If you have recent lab work, bring it. If not, we’ll order the right panels.
Lab Work
We go beyond the standard panel your PCP runs. Comprehensive hormone and metabolic testing helps us understand what’s actually happening inside your body, not just whether you fall within a “normal” range.
Treatment Plan
Based on your symptoms and lab results, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan. This may include bioidentical hormones, lifestyle recommendations, and targeted supplementation. Your plan is unique to you.
Follow-Up
Regular follow-up visits ensure your treatment is working. We’ll recheck labs, adjust dosages, and make sure you’re feeling the way you should.

Have More Questions About BHRT?
Is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy safe?
Bioidentical hormones are plant-derived and structurally identical to hormones your body naturally produces. Hormone therapy is an established treatment for menopause and perimenopause symptoms, and it carries real risks as well as benefits that depend on your personal health history, dose, and timing. The key is working with a practitioner trained in hormone therapy who reviews those risks and benefits with you and tailors treatment to your individual needs.
How is BHRT different from synthetic hormones?
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structure as the hormones your body produces, while synthetic hormones have a different structure. Bioidentical options are available as FDA-approved products and as compounded preparations customized to your hormone levels and symptoms; compounded preparations are not FDA-approved as finished products. Your provider will discuss the options and their risks and benefits with you.
How quickly will I see results?
Many patients begin to notice improvement within the first several weeks, with benefits often building over the following months — but timelines vary from person to person, and individual results vary. Your provider will monitor your progress and adjust your treatment as needed.
Do I need labs before my first appointment?
You do not need labs before your first visit. We’ll discuss your symptoms, review your health history, and determine which labs to order during your consultation. If you have recent labs from another provider, you’re welcome to bring those.
