Hormone Replacement Doctor

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a form of hormone therapy where the doctor provides hormones, either to supplement lacking hormones or to substitute new hormones for those that naturally occur in the body.

BHRT or Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is similar to HRT, the difference is that the hormones that are supplemented or substituted by a BHRT doctor, are identical at a molecular level to those naturally occurring in the body.

The forms of Hormone Replacement that our doctors at Nouveau Health provide include:

Bioidentical hormones are derivatives of plant extracts structurally indistinguishable from human hormones. Typically, preparations of BHT may include progesterone, estradiol, estriol, DHEA and or testosterone. They are derived from a natural source; soybean or yam and are bioidentical to human hormones.

Menopause is a natural consequence of aging. Simply put, it is the cessation of a woman’s menstrual cycle known as meno (period) pause (stop). The ovaries produce three main hormones. The loss of these hormones produces variable symptoms in each individual patient as the hormone levels decrease. This process usually begins years before the patients last period.
