"I am a 37 year old female who has suffered from endometriosis my entire life. As a result, doctors put me on birth control when I was 13 years old and it never took care of the pain I went through or the PMS symptoms I lived with. After minor surgery and beginning hormonal therapy with Dr. Fath, I am pain free and I feel the best I have in years!"

"I started the hormone replacemeherapy about two months say is that I am laughing and enjoying my family again for the first time in years. It's hard to put into words how things are different but I just know that I found myself laughing again for no reason which seldom every happened for me anymore at a young 44 years of age. I recommend it to everyone!"
What is Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
BHRT is a way to fight aging and balance your hormones. It does this with the use of chemically and biologically identical hormones. This makes BHRT a better choice than conventional hormone replacement therapy, which uses synthetic hormones.
The natural hormones used in BHRT can be administered with a number of delivery methods. They include:
-
Pills
-
Injections
-
Pellets
-
Creams
-
Gels
-
Skin patches
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy generally falls into two categories:
BHRT for Women
and BHRT for Men.
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Many women seek bio-identical hormone replacement as a way to combat menopause. After women hit a certain age, their body goes through this drastic change. Menopause can also be caused at any age by a woman who has received a hysterectomy.
Some of the more alarming signs and symptoms of female hormonal imbalance include:
-
Hot flashes
-
Weight gain
-
Low libido
-
Fatigue
-
Depression
-
Mood swings
-
Migraines
-
Bone density loss
-
Memory loss
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men
Just as women suffer from menopause, men deal with andropause. Andropause is often synonymous with low testosterone. As a man ages, his testosterone levels drastically decrease and lead to the condition also known as Low-T.
Low testosterone symptoms include:
-
Low sex drive
-
Fatigue
-
Muscle loss
-
Depression
-
Joint pain
-
Memory loss
-
Poor concentration
