Hormone health is essential for optimal wellbeing, yet hormone deficiencies become increasingly common as we age. Imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and other hormones can cause troublesome symptoms and increase disease risks. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) offers a personalized way to restore hormonal balance, promote health and enhance quality of life.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. They are custom-compounded using plant-derived hormones that are molecularly similar to human hormones like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. BHRT uses bioidentical hormones to supplement declining levels, helping to alleviate symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, andropause and other hormone deficiencies.
Unlike conventional hormone replacement using synthetic or animal-derived hormones, bioidentical hormones act just like the body's own hormones. They offer a more natural hormonal balance with fewer side effects.
Custom-compounded bioidentical hormone therapy provides many advantages:
BHRT gets hormones back into balance for better health, without the risks and side effects of synthetic or non-bioidentical hormones.

Comprehensive bioidentical hormone replacement achieves the best results when combined with a healthy lifestyle. Balance Hormone Center provides patients with personalized recommendations on nutrition, exercise, stress relief and other wellness strategies to complement BHRT.
An anti-inflammatory diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and healthy fats provides the nutrients needed for hormonal balance. Limiting sugars, processed foods and alcohol helps optimize hormone health.
Regular moderate exercise, like walking 30 minutes a day, helps manage weight, mood, blood sugar and hormonal health. Checking with your healthcare provider before significantly increasing exercise is advised.
Chronic stress raises cortisol and contributes to hormone imbalance. Activities like yoga, meditation, massage and psychotherapy can relieve stress for better hormonal health.
Adequate high-quality sleep is essential for optimal hormone function. Following healthy sleep habits like sticking to a schedule, limiting caffeine and establishing a calming bedtime routine supports BHRT.
