Understanding Bioidentical Hormones
The science behind safe and effective hormone replacement therapy
✓ Bioidentical Hormones
Bioidentical hormones have the exact same molecular structure as the hormones your body produces naturally.
Because they’re identical to your own hormones, your body recognizes and uses them exactly as it would its own hormones.
✓ Molecularly identical to human hormones
✓ Metabolized naturally by your body
✓ Better safety profile
✓ More predictable effects
✓ Reduced side effects
✗ Synthetic Hormones
Synthetic hormones have a different molecular structure from human hormones.
These hormones are chemically altered to be patentable. Because they’re structurally different, your body processes them differently, which can lead to unwanted side effects and increased health risks.
✗ Molecularly different from human hormones
✗ Processed differently by your body
✗ Higher risk of side effects
✗Associated with increased health risks
✗ Not what your body naturally recognizes
The Bioidentical Hormones We Use
Each hormone plays a unique role in your health.
At PrecisionMedMD, we use only bioidentical formulations for optimal safety and effectiveness.
🌸Estradiol (E2)
The primary and most potent estrogen in your body.
Protects cardiovascular health, bone density, brain function, skin health, and metabolic function.
Critical for preventing heart disease, osteoporosis, and cognitive decline.
Progesterone
Balances estradiol’s effects and protects the uterine lining.
Promotes calm, improves sleep quality, supports bone health, and provides neuroprotection.
Essential for overall hormone balance and well-being.
Testosterone
Not just for men—women need testosterone too.
Maintains muscle mass, bone density, energy levels, libido, motivation, and cognitive sharpness.
Helps prevent sarcopenia and maintains metabolic health.
DHEA
A precursor hormone that your body converts into other hormones as needed. Supports immune function, energy production, mood regulation, and overall vitality.
Helps reduce joint pain and inflammation.
Declines significantly with age.
Thyroid Hormone
Regulates metabolism, energy production, body temperature, and weight.
Affects every cell in your body.
Proper thyroid function is essential for overall health and often needs optimization during menopause
Melatonin
Regulates your sleep-wake cycle and is a powerful antioxidant.
Critical for restorative sleep, cellular repair, immune function, and neuroprotection.
Production decreases with age and menopause.
