13. What distinguishes bio-identical hormone replacement therapy from synthetic hormone therapy? Unlike synthetic hormones, bio-identical hormones are precise replicas of the ones the client’s body makes itself. Synthetic hormones are derived from progesterone and estrogen's, but they aren’t identical to the ones your body produces and uses.
14. How exactly does bio-identical hormone replacement therapy work? To begin, your doctor will use a lab test called a “hormone panel” to determine an individualized approach to the treatment of your particular condition. After this panel is completed, a recommendation for bio-identical hormones is prepared specifically for you. It’s all prepared in a compounding pharmacy to ensure it has the same molecular structure as the hormones your body produces on its own.
