Bio-Identical Hormone Use

Meaning

Bio-identical hormone use refers to the clinical application of hormones that are chemically and structurally identical to those naturally produced by the human body, such as estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone. This therapeutic approach aims to replace or supplement hormones to alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal decline or imbalance, commonly observed during peri-menopause, menopause, or andropause. The goal is to restore physiological hormone levels using compounds that the body recognizes and processes precisely as its endogenous hormones.
