What is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy?

Bioidentical hormone therapy uses plant-derived hormones that are molecularly identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body—providing natural optimization for symptoms of hormone decline with fewer side effects than synthetic alternatives.

What to Know Before You Go

💡

Pro Tip:

Bring all recent blood work to your appointment. This saves time and allows your doctor to see trends in your hormone levels over time. If you don't have recent labs, the clinic will perform comprehensive testing.

⚠️

Insider Note:

Bioidentical hormone therapy requires ongoing monitoring — this is not a one-time fix. Plan for follow-up blood tests every 3–6 months to ensure optimal dosing, safety, and continued symptom relief.
