Are Bioidentical Hormones Safer than Synthetic Hormones?

Home » Knowledge Center » Hormone Therapy » Are Bioidentical Hormones Safer than Synthetic Hormones?

Our licensed healthcare providers prefer to prescribe bioidentical hormones to their patients rather than synthetic hormones for several reasons:

  • Bioidentical hormones are virtually identical to the hormones produced in your body’s endocrine system.
  • Bioidentical hormones are natural and often plant-based, while synthetic hormones can be made from animal-based material, such as urine from pregnant mares (horses).
  • Bioidentical hormones are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

You should only take bioidentical hormones as prescribed by your doctor or healthcare provider. Bioidentical hormones are available by prescription only.

Bioidentical Hormones Can Restore Your Youthful Vitality

As we age, our bodies’ endocrine system naturally slows or stops the production of certain hormones, such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. For women, this results in menopause and bothersome symptoms including hot flashes, night sweats, and weight gain.

However, men also experience similar changes as they get older. These unwanted changes include thinning hair, difficulty concentrating, and decreased libido.

Bioidentical hormones make it possible to restore your youthful vitality. You could feel younger and healthier at any age.

When You Should Consider Bioidentical Hormones

Most men and women notice symptoms that their bodies are producing fewer hormones in their 40s or 50s. This is often the time when women start to experience bothersome menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, mood swings, and night sweats. There are many options when you’re looking to combat these symptoms, so you might be asking, are bioidentical hormones safer than synthetic hormones? There are many FDA-approved bioidentical hormones for menopausal symptoms.

Men experience their own mid-life hormonal changes, too. If you notice any of the following symptoms or have other issues that are preventing you from peak performance, it may be time to consider bioidentical hormone replacement therapy:

  • Difficulty concentrating or “brain fog”
  • Weight gain
  • Thinning hair or hair loss
  • Depression
  • Changes in skin texture, tone, or appearance
  • Diminished sexual desire and/or performance
  • Feeling tired
