How do Bioidentical Hormones Work?

Hormones are chemicals made by the endocrine glands. They are messengers in the body that instruct other parts of your body on how and when to work. Hormones affect many systems and functions in your body. So when an imbalance occurs, the whole body can be affected.

Bioidentical hormones are:

  • artificial hormones that are similar to the hormones produced by the human body using plant elements
  • used as treatment for people whose own hormones are low or unbalanced
  • are processed hormones designed to mimic the hormones made by your body’s glands
  • estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are the most commonly used bioidentical hormones.
  • sometimes specific “recipes” are needed, and compounding pharmacies create those specific therapies.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) can be administered through pills, patches, creams, gels, shots, and implanted pellets.
