Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy can replace the hormones the body loses — progesterone, testosterone, estrogen, and others — with hormones bioidentical in nature to those that are lost. They help both men and women rebalance hormone levels naturally.

Synthetic hormones, however, do not mimic the body's natural hormones. They simply turn off symptoms instead of rebalancing hormone levels, which may lead to many unwanted and harmful side effects.

Therapy is used primarily to support hormone balance in both women and men after menopause or andropause, when estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone decline. The main goal is to put hormones back into their natural alignment and minimize these effects of aging.

The pharmacists at Custom Scripts have had extensive training in hormone replacement therapy and have been compounding bioidentical hormone products since 1984. They use state-of-the-art scales and computers to ensure that hormones are measured accurately and that finished products are of the highest quality.

The pharmacists are there to help the physician customize therapy for the patient's specific needs. Since each prescription is specially made for the patient, the dosage can be tailored to meet individual needs.
