Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical versions of hormones that naturally occur in the human body. As we age, our bodies produce fewer essential hormones like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Replacing these declining hormones through bioidentical hormone therapy can help both men and women find relief from unpleasant symptoms and reduce health risks linked to hormonal imbalance.
