Understanding BHRT: A Supportive Approach to Hormonal Health
As a driven and ambitious business leader, you know that maintaining your health is crucial to achieving success and inspiring your team. If you’re navigating the challenges of hormonal imbalance, burnout, and the quest for work-life balance, our Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) clinic is here to support you in reclaiming control over your body and emotions.
What is BHRT?
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) utilizes hormones that are chemically identical to those your body produces naturally. Unlike conventional hormone replacement therapies, which often rely on synthetic hormones, BHRT provides a personalized approach tailored to your unique hormonal needs.
BHRT vs. Body-Identical HRT vs. Pharmaceutical HRT
- BHRT: Composed of hormones derived from natural sources, BHRT is customized to match your individual hormone levels, ensuring a safer and more effective treatment while addressing the root causes of your symptoms
- Body-Identical HRT: Similar to BHRT, body-identical HRT consists of hormones that are chemically identical to those produced by the human body but may not always be compounded to meet your specific needs.
- Pharmaceutical HRT: Typically involves synthetic hormones that may not align with your body’s natural chemistry, often leading to side effects and insufficient symptom relief.
Our Supportive Approach
At our clinic, we believe in a holistic and supportive approach to hormone health. We focus on finding the root causes of your symptoms, ensuring that you receive the most effective and personalized care possible. Our dedicated team takes the time to understand your unique health challenges, guiding you through every step of your healing journey.
Tailored BHRT Options
We offer a range of BHRT options to address your specific hormonal needs, ensuring a personalized treatment plan that reflects your individual health goals:
- Progesterone: Available in varied doses, unlike standard pharmaceutical options limited to 100 mg. We typically prescribe oral progesterone for its added benefits on sleep and anxiety. In certain cases, we may recommend a transdermal cream—please note that an annual transvaginal scan is required
- Biest: A combination of Oestriol and Oestradiol in a varied ratio of 70:30 to 90:10, based on your DUTCH test results. This is usually administered as a transdermal cream for optimal absorption.
- Oestriol: Offered in gel or pessary form, Oestriol can be applied intravaginally to alleviate localized symptoms of oestrogen deficiency, such as dryness, atrophic vaginitis, painful intercourse, and recurrent urinary infections.
- Testosterone: Available in cream or gel, which can be applied transdermally or directly to the vulva. This allows us to tailor the dosage specifically for you, avoiding the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional NHS treatments that often rely on male hormone preparations.
- Additional Options: We may also incorporate pregnenolone in transdermal cream form, DHEA as a capsule, and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) into your treatment plan as needed.
