THE ABC’S OF BHRT – HOLY HORMONES!

aug4

First you should understand what BHRT stands for: bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

BHRT is the process of restoring hormones naturally to prevent the symptoms and diseases associated with low circulating levels of hormones. Bio-identical hormones have the same chemical and molecular structure as those naturally made by the human body. Which makes the body recognize them as naturally functioning the same way. They mimic what’s real in every way. When you use these natural hormones, the cells recognize them as familiar and know how to put them to best use.

THERE’S A LOT RIDING IN THE BALANCE

Because hormones regulate nearly every metabolic process in your body, when hormones are not properly balanced, your metabolic functions are affected, resulting in loathsome symptoms, reduction in quality of life, and if not treated, ultimately disease. Medical research has proven that when BHRT is used to re-establish the body’s optimum hormone levels, good things happen at a cellular level. Which bioidentical hormones and how much you need depends on your individual body chemistry or physiology. The objective of BHRT is to replace or rebalance hormones that are deficient or in excess, in order to restore optimum hormone balance. The list of benefits is way beyond eye-opening.

LET’S GET REAL

Think about it for a second. Can you come up with anything “synthetic” that trumps “real”? Well, there are synthetic hormones. Unlike bioidentical hormones, non-bioidentical hormones have chemically altered shapes which don’t structurally match the hormones produced by your body. Quite simply, they’re not designed to mimic our real ones. Synthetic hormones, like Premarin, a synthetic estrogen, and Prempro, a synthetic progesterone, have a molecular bond which is not recognized by the human body. Yet a lot of women use them, most likely unaware of the difference. Furthermore, they are not metabolized efficiently in the body and interfere with the normal ebb and flow of hormonal function, potentially causing detrimental side effects. That’s why natural hormone replacement therapy is considered the safest and most effective form of HRT.
