Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are structurally identical to those the body naturally produces. Through pharmaceutical compounding, your medication can be customized to your symptoms, laboratory results and clinical goals.
At EpitomeRx, we work closely with healthcare providers to prepare personalized formulations tailored to each patient's needs and treatment goals.
BHRT for women
Changes during perimenopause and menopause can bring symptoms that affect daily life. Providers commonly consider BHRT when patients experience:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Sleep disruption
- Mood changes and irritability
- Fatigue
- Decreased libido
- Vaginal dryness
- Difficulty concentrating
BHRT for men
Testosterone levels decline with age. Men with low testosterone may notice:
- Low energy
- Reduced libido
- Decreased muscle mass
- Difficulty concentrating
- Mood changes
- Reduced motivation
How compounding customizes your therapy
- Hormone strengths adjusted in small steps
- Combinations such as estrogen with progesterone in one cream
- Dosage forms including creams, capsules, troches and vaginal preparations
- Formulas without certain dyes, preservatives, fragrances or peanut oil
Compounded medications require a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider and are not FDA approved. This page is educational and is not medical advice.
