Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Reviews
Who is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) for?
Anyone experiencing the effects of a hormonal imbalance can benefit from BHRT. Upon making your first appointment for hormone therapy in Bethesda with Nava, your practitioner will decide if he or she feels that BHRT is the remedy for the symptoms you are experiencing.
BHRT for Women
Menopause and perimenopause are common reasons why women are referred to a BHRT doctor at Nava, but it can also be an effective treatment for premenstrual syndrome (estrogen dominance).
BHRT for Men
Men are known to produce less and less testosterone as they age. Some refer to this as male menopause or andropause. This can eventually lead to a noticeable drop in testosterone that leads to:
- Decreased energy levels
- Weight gain
- Low sex drive
What is BHRT?
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. Nava’s doctors tend to recommend this treatment when your body is not producing enough of a specific hormone (usually testosterone in men and estrogen in women). There are therapies that use synthetic hormones for treatment, which may not be as effective as the bio-identical hormones that Nava uses in its practice.
Nava uses bio-identical hormones that are derived from natural plant sources, such as yams. The main difference is that these hormones exactly match the molecular structure of the hormones that are present in your body. Whether these hormones are introduced to your body by injections, creams, pills, or subdermal pellets is your preference. However, whichever method you choose, BHRT will correct your hormonal imbalance and alleviate your symptoms.
