What is Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Hormones control most of your basic bodily functions via communication between cells throughout the body. Hormones play a role in everything including: digestion, immune function, mood, and libido to name a few. So, when your hormones are out of balance, even slightly, it can have a big impact on your health and well-being.
BHRT can be used to treat men and women when their hormone levels drop or become unbalanced. Bio-identical hormones are derived from plants, that are chemically identical to those the human body produces.
