Women’s Health Compounded Medications

BHRT uses hormones that are chemically identical to those the body produces naturally, offering a personalized approach to treating symptoms of hormonal imbalances. These imbalances may arise from menopause, andropause, thyroid disorders and other conditions.

The key benefits of BHRT include:

• Enhanced Well-being and Energy: BHRT can significantly improve sleep quality and reduce disturbances, leading to increased energy levels and vitality. This helps in tackling the fatigue often associated with hormonal imbalances.
• Mood, Mental Health and Cognitive Function: By stabilizing hormones, BHRT can alleviate mood swings, depression and anxiety, while improving mental clarity and cognitive function, enhancing overall mental well-being.
• Sexual Health and Bone Density: BHRT addresses sexual health issues such as low libido and vaginal dryness, and supports bone health by improving bone density, thereby reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
• Skin Health: It also contributes to maintaining skin hydration, elasticity and thickness, promoting a youthful appearance.

Yes, while BHRT is designed to mimic the body’s natural hormones closely and is often well-tolerated, some individuals may experience transitional side effects as the body adjusts to new levels of hormones. These side effects are usually temporary and often resolve as hormone levels stabilize. Common side effects include:

• Mood Swings and Emotional Changes: As hormone levels adjust, some individuals may experience mood fluctuations, including feelings of anxiety or irritability.
• Fatigue: Initial adjustments to hormone levels may lead to feelings of tiredness or fatigue, which typically improve with time.
• Skin Reactions: Some individuals might notice skin irritation or redness at the site of hormone application, especially with topical forms of BHRT.
• Weight Changes: Temporary changes in weight or body composition can occur as the body adjusts to new hormone levels.
• Headaches and Nausea: During the initial phase of therapy, some people may experience headaches or nausea, which usually diminish over time.
• Breast Tenderness: This is a common side effect, particularly in the early stages of therapy, as the body adapts to changes in hormone levels.
