Women’s Age Management: Menopause & BHRT

Even though the average age during which women experience menopause is 51, women begin losing their hormones in their late 30s and early 40s. Menopause is a result of decreased estrogen production. Unfortunately, though menopause is a natural process, low estrogen levels can cause a slew of undesirable symptoms. 

Female bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is also known as hormone replacement therapy (HRT). BHRT is a natural way for women to combat the symptoms of menopause and cope with aging. When you choose BHRT with Executive Medicine of Texas, you will have access to all of your anti-aging needs. 

WOMEN’S AGE MANAGEMENT

Menopause isn’t diagnosed until a woman has gone 12 months without her menstrual period. However, the years leading up to menopause, also called perimenopause, can have unpleasant signs and symptoms as a result of declining hormone levels. Symptoms of perimenopause include: 

• Irregular periods
• Hot flashes
• Chills and night sweats
• Sleep problems
• Changes in mood
• Slowed metabolism
• Weight gain
• Dry skin
• Thinning hair
• Decreased energy
• Loss of interest in sex
• Aches, pains, or stiff joints

These symptoms have a tendency to lower a person’s energy as well as affect emotional health. When menopause occurs, the symptoms can get worse. Fortunately, there are effective age management and hormone therapy treatments available to help women cope with the natural aging process. 

BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT FOR WOMEN

Hormones control nearly all of the body’s basic functions and provide a pathway of communication between cells and the rest of the body. As a result, when a woman’s hormones are imbalanced, she may experience extreme health impacts. Many women turn to hormone therapy when they begin experiencing these problems. 

BHRT utilizes bioidentical hormones that are derived from plants and are chemically identical to the hormones produced by the human body. Since the chemical structure of bioidentical hormones is the same as naturally produced hormones, BHRT offers a safe and natural way to cope with aging. Bioidentical hormones come in a variety of forms, such as pills, patches, injections, and the most popular form – pellets. 

Bioidentical hormone pellets are slightly larger than a grain of rice and act as a 24/7 hormone delivery system. Since pellets provide a steady dose of hormones, pellet therapy eliminates the typical hormone fluctuations associated with pills, injects, and other forms of hormone replacement therapy. BHRT can increase hormone levels and improve many moderate to severe menopause symptoms.
