What is a Bioidentical Hormone?
Bioidentical hormones have the same chemical structure as those made in the human body; therefore, mimicking the function of the hormones the body produces. Examples of bioidentical hormones are pregnenolone, estradiol, estriol, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA (prasterone). ​
​
Physicians use hormone replacement therapy to help symptoms from hormone depletion or imbalance.
Conditions associated with hormonal depletion or imbalance include:
-
Menopause
-
Andropause
-
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
-
Peri-menopause
-
Estrogen dominance
-
Irregular or heavy menstrual flow
-
Hot flashes
-
Night sweats
Several commercial products available contain bioidentical hormones, like estradiol transdermal patches, DHEA vaginal suppositories, oral progesterone immediate release capsules, and testosterone intramuscular injections.
Our specially trained staff of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians may prepare hormones in a variety of strengths, combinations and dosage forms using FDA and USP registered active pharmaceutical ingredients to accommodate to your patient specific needs by working with you and your physician.
