Bio-identical Hormone Replacement
Bio-identical Hormone Replacement uses natural substances for hormone replacement therapy. These natural hormone replacements contain the exact chemical compositions as hormones produced by the human body. The ideal natural materials for hormone replacement therapy are readily available in nature.
Because bio-identical, or natural, hormones cannot be patented, pharmaceutical companies are disinclined to take on the research and development costs needed to commercially manufacture them. As a result, physicians generally receive limited information on natural progesterone, testosterone, estradiol, estriol and estrone.
Women, no longer willing to accept the risks associated with synthetic hormones are searching for safer alternatives. An estimated two million are now experiencing the benefits of natural bio-identical estrogens, progesterones and testosterones derived from plants.
