Hormone Replacement Therapy. CLINICA BRITANNIA 08/05/2021

Your body’s hormones control most of your basic bodily
functions. They serve as an internal communication system,
coordinating everything from digestion, appetite, immune
function, moods, and libido.
So, when your hormones become unbalanced it can affect
the well-being of the body. There are various treatments
available when this happens, one being Bioidentical
Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT). This is a more
“natural” solution to hormone issues but is not suitable for
everyone, so it is important to get the advice from a
Specialist in this field.
Symptoms of perimenopause and menopause like thinning
hair, lowered sex drive, vaginal dryness, unusual weight
gain, chronic fatigue, mood swings, hot flashes, night
sweats. anxiety and male hormone inbalances can all be
successfully treated with BHRT.
Bioidentical hormones are different from those used in
traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT). They
mimic the hormones that our bodies produce naturally and
are derived from plant oestrogens. It increases the levels of
the hormones that have dropped and helps to moderate
symptoms.
BHRT can be administered in pill form or through the skin
using gels, patches or personalised creams made in
specialised pharmacies to treat each person’s individual
needs.
Contact your Health provider for advice on if this treatment
would be suitable for you.
