HORMONE THERAPY (BHRT)

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) Houston, Texas

Aging is more than skin deep! As time flies by, we naturally go through the many processes of aging that can make us feel like we have lost charge of our own lives. Changes in hormone levels can result in unfavorable consequences such as hot flashes, insomnia, and weight gain, amongst other things. The good news is, we can regain control of our lives with Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy!

This treatment is appropriate for addressing concerns related to hormone imbalance and symptoms of menopause. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy works by replacing and boosting those hormones with the identical hormones naturally found in our bodies, allowing you to live life to it’s fullest extent.

At Dr. Sharon Aesthetics, Houston, Texas, we offer Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy with FDA-Approved products.

How does BHRT work?

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), can be administered in different ways. Pharmaceutical hormone pills, patches, creams, and, the insertion of pellets, are all methods of BHRT. These hormones are made from naturally derived plant estrogens

The preferred method of bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is the use of pellets. These are rice grain-sized pellets that are inserted underneath the skin of the patient to release the appropriate amount of hormones. This form of treatment is used because it is the only form of BHRT that is considered to be long-term and effective 24 hours a day, allowing the patient to reap the full benefits of their newly balanced hormone levels. It is superior to other hormone therapy products.

BHRT is also known as natural hormone therapy or bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Bio-identical refers to the use of hormones that are identical to our own. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is used to supplement hormone levels to address the symptoms caused by hormone imbalance. This treatment is most commonly used to treat symptoms of menopause and postmenopausal women. 

Living a quality life with BHRT

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy restores not only our hormone balance, but the quality of life we deserve to have. Hormone imbalance can inhibit us from experiencing life and relationships with loved ones as we should. Postmenopausal women benefit greatly from this treatment, and can restore their vitality.
