Everywhere there are media reports of the dangers of synthetic HRT (hormone replacement therapy), yet many post/peri-menopausal women are not aware of natural hormone therapy, - or more accurately, bioidentical therapy which is now offered as a safer choice. Because of the many dangers, women´s health experts are advising women who are on the synthetic HRT to switch to natural hormones.

Bio identical indicates that this hormone is identical chemically and structurally to the hormone produced by the human body, and although they are associated with some potential risks and side effects, the risk is minimized. To clarify further: A molecule is extracted from either soy or yam, and through a series of chemical processes it is converted to the specific human hormone molecule. There is no trace of the plant in the final product, just pure bio identical human hormone. Balancing the estrogens with a bio identical progesterone also helps offset the risks. Postmenopausal women need to know there are other choices and that there are physicians who can customize the dose according to a woman´ individual needs.

Below are some disorders, that you may suffer from, which can be associated with hormonal deficiencies;

Menopause

Marks the end of menstrual bleeding in women.

Ovaries stop producing estrogen, progesterone and androgens.

Can occur from result of ovaries or other reproductive organs
removed through surgery.

Common symptoms are; hot flashes, night sweats and vaginal dryness.

Endometriosis

Endometrial tissue which lines the uterus migrates outside uterus
and implant themselves onto other organs.

Most common sites for these cells to implant themselves are the
ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, vagina, abdominal cavity and the colon.

Common symptoms are; pain before or during menstruation,
infertility.

Premenstrual Syndrome

Can sometimes be the imbalance of the body´s natural ratio of
estrogen to progesterone during the premenstrual phase, poor diet and thyroid
disease.

Common symptoms are; mood swings, food cravings, headaches,
exhaustion, breast ternderness and water retention.

Postpartum Depression

Depression that can be brought on by the changing hormones after
childbirth.

Symptoms can include; anxiety, irritability, insomnia, weepiness,
sadness or fear and can occur anytime within the first year following
childbirth.

Infertility

The diminished ability or inability to produce offspring. This can
be caused by inadequate production during the luteal phase of the cycle.
There is indication by research that natural progesterone can raise the progesterone
levels in women to help them conceive and carry pregnancy to full term.

Polycystic Ovaries

An accumulation of many incompletely developed follicles in the ovaries. This condition is characterized by abnormal, irregular, or scantymenstrual periods, infertility, obesity, decreased breast size, aggravation of acne.

Premature Ovarian Failure

Ovarian hypofunction may be caused by genetic factors such as chromosome abnormalities, or may occur in the presence of autoimmune disorders in which
antibodies disrupt normal ovarian function. Symptoms may include; menopause, such as
hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. They also may have
difficulty becoming pregnant.

Hypothyroidism

A deficiency in the production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid
gland, resulting in a slow metabolic rate.

Symptoms may include: fatigue, weakness, depression, hair loss,
memory loss,weight gain.

Hypoadrenalism

A deficiency in the production of hormones by the adrenal glands.
The adrenalglands primarilyproduce the hormones, cortisol and DHEA. Some cause may be aninsufficient amount of stimulation by the pituitary hormones.

Symptoms may include; fatigue, irritability, depression, allergies,
inability to concentrate, weakness.

Andropause - Also known as male menopause

Caused by decline in hormones, primarily testosterone, growth
hormone and DHEA

Common symptoms include; decreased libido, lack of energy, muscle

Osteoporosis

In osteoporosis, the inside of the bones become porous and thin.
Over time, this weakens the bones and may make them more likely to break.
Common signs can be; broken wrist or hip, low back pain, hunched back, may get
shorter over time.

Pregnenolone

Often referred to as the parent hormone pregnenolone is synthesized
from cholesterol. It is a super-hormone that is the key to keeping

fighting mental fatigue and relieving severe joint pain and fatigue in
arthritis.
