What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Patients searching for hormone therapy in Los Angeles have a lot of questions:
- What is HRT?
- What exactly are bioidentical hormones?
- Are bioidentical hormones safe?
- What makes bioidentical hormones different from synthetic hormones?
You have come to the right place for answers! To answer your BHRT questions, let’s bring you up to speed on what hormones are and what do they do. Hormones manage or governor most of your body’s most important functions. Everything from your sexual wellness, to how well you build muscle and burn fat, is regulated by your hormones. Even though hormones are so vital to so many bodily functions, and your overall health and wellness, you do not make them in unlimited supply. When you are young and growing, your hormone levels are very high. As you get older, they start to drop. The purposed of hormone replacement therapy is to give you back what time takes away, and return your ability to perform mentally and physically more like you could when you were younger, by raising your levels and correcting any hormone imbalances. Bioidentical hormone therapy is the safest and most effective kind of HRT that hormone doctors prescribe. The reason is in the name. Bioidentical hormones are “identical” to the hormones your body makes.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy for Men
The most important hormone for men is testosterone. Male Hormone Therapy is designed as a treatment for low testosterone, also known as low T. Your hormone levels must be maintained in a delicate balance for optimal health. That is the goal of hormone treatment for low testosterone. There can sometime be a problem with having too much testosterone, but hormone therapy for men is usually about solving the problems related to the testosterone decline that naturally occurs as we age. Testosterone hormone treatments for men are designed to help you achieve peak performance at any age. Bioidentical hormone treatments for men can:
- Help you maintain weight and proper body mass
- Improve Bone Density
- Combat Erectile Dysfunction
- Improve Libido
- Improve Cognition

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy for Women

Estrogen therapy can:
- Relieve menopausal symptoms

Side Effects of Hormone Replacement Therapy
Anyone who is considering hormone treatments will obviously be concerned about HRT side effects, but, Hormone Therapy is actually a lot safer, and has much fewer side effects than you have been lead to believe. Most of the side effects of hormone replacement you have heard of involve the use of synthetic hormones and not bioidentical hormones. Bioidentical hormone side effects are very rare. Your body cannot tell BHRT hormones from the ones it normally produces, and that is why BHRT is the safest and most effective hormone treatments you can have. You may have heard reports of some major side effects of hormone replacement therapy, such as that HRT can cause cancer, or increase your risk of heart disease. Neither of these are true, and in fact some of the newest information on hormone replacement indicates that HRT may lower your risk of heart disease and some cancers!

What Kinds of HRT is Available?
HRT is given in a number of ways. Hormone therapy can be prescribed as skin patches, oral medications, injections, or hormone replacement pellets. Your hormone treatment may include:
- Testosterone – HRT for men is all about combating Low-T and boosting your levels of testosterone. Remember, real testosterone therapy is only available with a doctor’s prescription.
- Growth Hormone – Growth hormone is all the rage among celebrities here in LA! Make an appointment at our Los Angeles Hormone Therapy Center, and you just never know who you may see in our waiting room!
- Sermorelin – Sermorelin therapy can be prescribed by itself or, along with your HRT program, Sermorelin is not a hormone, but it boosts you body’s ability to make critical hormones such as testosterone and growth hormone.
- Thyroid Hormones – Thyroid hormones are essential for cellular metabolism. People with low levels of thyroid hormones have slower metabolisms. Which leads to the associated problems, most noticeably chronic fatigue and weight gain.
- Ipamorelin Therapy – Ipamorelin hormone treatment is often used in conjunction with growth hormone treatments. Ipamorelin helps encourage the production of not only HGH, but testosterone and other hormones.

Hormone Replacement Therapy Testimonials
“I’m pushing 60, and I have always been in great shape. But, lately no matter how much I work out, I have this “spare tire” I just can’t lose. Another guy at the gym who looks ripped, told me to get my testosterone level checked. Sure enough my testosterone was low. I got on a program of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, and I am looking great, feeling great, and my wife tells me she sees a BIG difference, and not just in the way I look!” — Gordon V. – Bel-Air, Los Angeles
“I’m a gal in my mid-50s, and was starting to get hit with the mood swings, the hot flashes, I run a business, I said, I’ve got no time to deal with this…I knew that Suzanne Sommers and a lot of other women swear by HRT. I made the call, I am at work, running my house hold, and never missing a beat – even my sex life is better!” — Henna G. – Malibu, Los Angeles
“I’ve been married a long time. My wife and I still enjoy getting romantic, but lately I was not able to satisfy her they I used to.

Hormone Therapy FAQs
What is the difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are just what they sound like, completely identical to your own hormones on a molecular level. Bioidentical hormones are made from all natural sources by local compounding pharmacies. Synthetic hormones use artificial chemicals, and are made in big labs of the pharmaceutical companies.
Are Bioidentical Hormones Safe?
Since bioidentical hormones are chemically indistinguishable from your own hormones, they are the safest hormones you can use.
How much does hormone replacement therapy cost in Los Angeles?
The cost of hormone therapy will differ from patient to patient due to age, gender, and diagnosis. However, you could expect to pay anywhere from $600 per month to about $2500 per month depending on the results of your hormone test.
How long until I see results using hormone therapy?
It can take from a few weeks to a few months to feel the full effects of your hormone therapy treatments. In the first few weeks you will definitely notice renewed energy and vitality, longer term benefits such as improved cognition, and improved metabolism, may take a few more months to be realized. You hormone doctor will design a program to maximize your individual results, in the shortest amount of time.
Can hormone therapy be used for weight loss?
Hormone imbalances can affect your weight. Low testosterone for example can lower your ability to burn fat build muscle. HRT should not be considered a “weight loss treatment” but it can help you lose weight when it is combined with diet, exercise, and other lifestyle and behavioral changes.
