Traditional Hormone Therapy
Side effects: Traditional hormone therapy, especially when used in high doses or for a long period, can have serious side effects, including increased risk of breast cancer, heart disease, stroke, and blood clots.
Synthetic Hormones: These treatments often use synthetic hormones or hormones derived from animal urine, which may not perfectly match the body's hormones.
Bio-Identical Therapy
Natural Composition: BHRT uses hormones that are chemically identical to those your body produces naturally, leading to potentially fewer side effects.
Customization: The hormone doses can be customized based on individual needs, providing a personalized approach to hormone therapy.
Fewer Risks: Some studies suggest that BHRT may carry a lower risk of certain side effects compared to traditional therapy.
