Description

HORMONES

For both women and men, hormonal imbalances can wreak havoc with mood, relationships, and quality of life in general. • As awareness of hormonal-related problems has grown, so has the mass production of pills, patches and creams to treat them; • But each person’s body is different and has its own unique needs, and commercially manufactured products, which tend to be “one-size-fits-all,” don’t always account for that. • Compounding can customize solutions that fit your specific needs. • Our pharmacy partners with the innovators in compounding for HRT.

Traditional VS Bioidentical HRT

Synthetic hormones, such as Premarin and Provera, have traditionally been used for hormone replacement therapy. More recently, bioidentical hormones have grown in popularity as the chemical structures of bioidentical hormones are identical to those produced by the human body. Because the chemical structure is identical, these hormones are often referred to as “bioidentical.” Experts believe this makes them more reliable and more predictable in the way they work.

DHEA,

or dehydroepiandrosterone, is the most abundant steroid hormone in the human body and is produced from cholesterol by the outer layer of the adrenal glands in both men and women, with the ovaries and testes producing smaller amounts. It is an essential hormone with it's main function being a precursor to male and female sex hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. Natural DHEA levels peak in early adulthood and generally decline slowly with age. DHEA has been shown to protect against cancer and heart disease and to lower blood cholesterol.DHEA has also been shown to improve memory, strengthen the immune system, prevent bone loss, reduce body fat and enhance libido.

Pregnenolone

Often referred to as the “parent hormone,” pregnenolone is synthesized from cholesterol. It is a super-hormone that is the key to keeping the brain functioning at peak capacity. Believed to be the most potent memory enhancer, it has also been shown to be beneficial in improving concentration, fighting mental fatigue and relieving severe joint pain and fatigue in arthritis.
