Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men & Women

Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy For Men & Women

BHRT (bio-identical hormone replacement therapy) and traditional HRT are both hormone replacement therapies that come in different forms (tablets, capsules, suppositories, creams, and gels). They are comprised of different doses and combinations of hormones and are typically used as people age and hormone levels drop, particularly for women who are in peri-menopause or menopause.

The advantage of these compounded hormone replacement therapies is that it’s a customized solution for each individual. No two medications are alike as we completely tailor it to you. The Creative Scripts team in Naples, Florida, led by Doctors of Pharmacy and Naples natives Jerry and Lisa Meloche, explain the differences and benefits of this type of treatment.

What Is The Difference Between BHRT And HRT?

Let’s be clear, both BHRT and HRT products are effective. The main difference between BHRT and HRT is the substances used to create them.

Male and female BHRT at Creative Scripts is derived from plant sources that are molecularly identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. Some traditional HRT products can be made from the urine of pregnant horses and other synthetic hormones. Some patients prefer compounded BHRT because of its quality and because we can adjust the doses to better suit your needs whereas HRT comes in fixed doses.

Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance

Are you suffering from problematic symptoms? Often, these symptoms are due to either a fluctuation or a drop in hormone levels. Eventually, these symptoms subside for most; but unfortunately, they can last for years for some patients.

BHRT can be used to improve moderate to severe symptoms, including:
  • Memory loss
  • Weight gain
  • Sleep issues
  • Night Sweats
  • Depression
  • Low libido or pain during sex
  • Nervousness, anxiety or irritability
  • Thinning hair
  • Dry skin
  • Hot flashes
  • Erectile dysfunction / ED
  • Loss of muscle mass
  • Difficulty concentrating
Symptoms-of-Hormonal-Imbalance

Increasing and/or balancing hormone levels – including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone – can reduce these issues so you can enjoy your life again.

In addition to helping with symptoms, hormone replacement therapy may also improve skin thickness, elasticity, and hydration, and some evidence shows may even reduce wrinkles.

Why Choose Compounded BHRT?

The major advantage of BHRT is that it is a customized solution for each patient. Your unique needs are addressed with compounding. The benefits to a man undergoing cancer treatment will differ from that of a post-menopausal woman, but through BHRT, both can improve their general well-being and quality of life.

Many patients report:
  • Increased energy levels
  • Fewer mood swings
  • Weight loss
  • Enhanced sex drive
  • Better overall quality sleep
  • Improved memory

If you’ve been struggling with symptoms of peri-menopause, menopause, or andropause (male menopause), your physician may suggest you seek relief with Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT). In this case, the team at Creative Scripts in Naples, FL will work with you and your physician to create a compounded medication treatment plan that best suits you.

What to Expect with Treatment

Once treatment has begun, you can typically expect to see your symptoms begin to improve within a few weeks. Most patients experience improvement in symptoms within 6 to 8 weeks
