It is natural for our bodies as we grow older to produce less and less of our natural hormones necessary for key vital functions. As women approach the perimenopausal years, both estrogen and progesterone levels drop but at an uneven rate, resulting to estrogen dominance. Because of an imbalance in the levels of natural hormones in our bodies, numerous hormone-related problems are common as women enter their 40’s, including hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, foggy thinking, memory lapse, depression, sleep disturbances, fatigue, stress, weight gain, decreased libido, hair loss, mood swings, breast tenderness, nervousness, irritability, anxiety and fibrocystic disease of the breast.
Hormone replacement therapy with synthetic hormones such as Prempro have been associated with increased risks of heart attacks, strokes, breast cancer, and blood clots. Women today are no longer willing to accept the risks associated with synthetic hormone replacement and are looking at other options in alternative medicines such as the much safer Bio-identical hormone therapy.
Bio-identical Hormones are estrogens, progesterone and testosterone hormones produced from wild yams, soy beans and other natural plant products. Unlike other hormones like Provera-Progestin which are mostly synthetic, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy provides hormones just like your body makes and at the same amount your body would expect to have in your cells. Bio-identical hormones are structurally similar to the hormones your body naturally produces and utilizes over time, thus resulting to significantly less side effects and better bioavailability. An estimated 2 million women are now benefiting from Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy. |
