Bio-identical Hormones (BHRT) offer women an alternative to synthetic hormones for menopausal and peri-menopausal symptoms that include hot flashes, night sweats, difficulty sleeping, decreased libido, and weight gain.

“Most hormone medications address estrogen and/or progestin replacement, but BHRT is different,” says Dr. Randy Birken, founder of Birken Medical Aesthetics.  “With BHRT, I can look at blood levels of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, as well as the metabolic hormones that effect energy and weight.  What is deficient is corrected to a more optimal level leading to significant clinical improvement.”

While BHRT may not be safer than synthetic, intuitively they may be, since the body recognizes the molecule as biologically identical to natural hormone production.

“BHRT may not be for every woman, but when conventional methods have failed, it may be a great alternative.”
