How Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Can Help Eliminate Menopausal Symptoms
May 3, 2018
Hormonal imbalances during menopause cause many women to experience some physical and emotional symptoms. Women typically begin to experience menopause symptoms in the mid-40s. The good news is that bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can alleviate many of these symptoms, significantly improving a woman’s quality of life!
What Is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy?
Unlike many of the commonly prescribed synthetic women hormones, bioidentical hormone therapy utilizes hormones with structures identical to those of the hormones your body naturally produces. Most synthetic hormones often result in undesirable side effects and may increase the risk of breast cancer, unlike bioidentical hormones. At CWC Medical Spa, we customize and tailor your treatments to suit your individual needs.
What Are the Symptoms of Menopause?
The most common symptoms of menopause women experience are hot flashes, night sweats, loss of libido, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. Some women may experience changes such as fatigue, hair loss, insomnia, difficulty concentrating, memory lapses, weight gain, depression, anxiety, and irritability. Sometimes painful symptoms are present such as breast pain, headaches, joint pain, muscle tension, and itchy skin. Additionally, some women will develop osteoporosis, which is a degenerative bone disorder, characterized by a general decrease in bone mass and density.
How Does Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Help Eliminate Symptoms of Menopause?
Bioidentical hormone therapy has been shown to improve the quality of life of women as their hormones levels drop during premenopause or menopause. Once levels of hormones are optimized, most of the symptoms will show significant improvement.
In addition to alleviating menopause symptoms, bioidentical hormone therapy has been shown to reduce the risk of developing many medical conditions including heart disease, elevated cholesterol, diabetes, and cataracts. It has can also improve your skin hydration, thickness, and elasticity, reducing wrinkles and restoring your youthful appearance!
