Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a personalized treatment that helps restore hormonal balance using hormones identical to those naturally produced by the body. Under medical supervision, BHRT can safely and effectively alleviate symptoms related to hormone fluctuations, improving energy, mood, metabolism, and overall well-being. By rebalancing key hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, BHRT supports healthy aging and helps you feel like yourself again.
For many women, hormonal imbalance becomes most noticeable during perimenopause, the years leading up to menopause. As estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate, it’s common to experience hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, irregular cycles, and disrupted sleep. These changes can also impact concentration, energy, and confidence, affecting quality of life long before menopause actually begins.
BHRT provides a natural and customized approach to ease these symptoms and restore balance. By gently reintroducing bio-identical hormones into the body, the treatment can reduce perimenopausal discomfort, stabilize mood and energy levels, and support better sleep and skin vitality. Many women describe feeling more grounded, focused, and in tune with their bodies again.
BHRT is not only for women. Men may also experience age-related hormonal decline, often called andropause, which can lead to fatigue, loss of muscle mass, low libido, and reduced motivation. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), a key component of BHRT for men, helps restore optimal testosterone levels to improve energy, strength, focus, and overall vitality, supporting balanced health and healthy aging.
Patients undergoing BHRT often experience improvements such as:

Understanding your hormonal health starts with a comprehensive evaluation. Before your first appointment, blood tests may be required to assess your baseline hormone levels and overall well-being. During your consultation, your physician will review your medical history, health goals, and test results to identify any imbalances that could be affecting your quality of life. Based on this assessment, a customized treatment plan will be designed to restore optimal hormone levels while prioritizing your safety and individual needs.
Once your personalized BHRT plan is established, your physician will discuss the expected benefits, potential outcomes, and any questions you may have. You will receive a prescription tailored to your needs, which can be filled at a licensed or compounding pharmacy to ensure precision in your treatment.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your local clinic or schedule a consultation with our medical experts.
Regular follow-ups are essential for ensuring the effectiveness of BHRT. During these appointments, your hormone levels are reassessed through blood tests, and any necessary adjustments to your prescriptions are made. The frequency of follow-ups varies depending on your doctor’s recommendations, typically every 3 to 6 months. Ongoing monitoring helps maintain optimal hormonal balance and allows for timely adjustments to address any changes in symptoms or overall health. This personalized approach ensures long-term success and well-being.
Before starting BHRT, it’s essential to undergo a thorough evaluation with a qualified physician, who will assess your medical history, current health status, and any potential risks.

Menopause is a natural biological process marking the end of menstruation and fertility. It is officially diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a period, typically occurring between ages 45 and 55 due to a decline in estrogen and progesterone production.
Symptoms of menopause can vary but often include hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, brain fog, vaginal dryness, weight gain, and an increased risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease.
Management options range from lifestyle adjustments to hormone replacement therapy (HRT), bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT), and non-hormonal treatments. A healthcare provider can help determine the best approach based on your symptoms and medical history.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a treatment designed to restore hormonal balance using hormones that are structurally identical to those naturally produced by the body. It is commonly used to alleviate symptoms of menopause, andropause, and other hormone deficiencies.
By optimizing hormone levels, BHRT can help improve symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, brain fog, and reduced libido. Each BHRT treatment plan is customized based on individual hormone levels and medical history.
As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, reduced muscle mass, decreased libido, mood changes, brain fog, and weight gain—often referred to as andropause.
BHRT can help restore testosterone levels, improving:
BHRT may also support cardiovascular health, bone density, and metabolic function. A personalized treatment plan ensures the safest and most effective approach for each individual.
Both Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) and traditional Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) are used to manage hormonal imbalances, but they differ in composition and approach:
While both therapies can be effective, BHRT is often preferred for its natural structure and ability to be personalized, whereas traditional HRT follows standardized formulations.
Like traditional HRT, bioidentical hormones carry some risks, which may include:
The level of risk depends on individual health factors, dosage, and duration of use. Close medical supervision is essential to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Yes, certain bioidentical hormones, such as estradiol and micronized progesterone, are approved by Health Canada and available as pharmaceutical-grade products. However, custom-compounded bioidentical hormones are not regulated in the same way, meaning they may lack standardized dosing and quality control.
BHRT may not be suitable for individuals with:
A thorough medical evaluation is necessary to determine if hormone therapy is safe for you.
As women age, hormone levels naturally shift, especially during perimenopause and menopause. These changes can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, sleep disruption, mood changes, brain fog, reduced libido, hot flashes, and changes in body composition.
BHRT may help support hormonal balance, improving:
BHRT may also support bone health and metabolic function. A personalized treatment plan helps ensure the safest and most appropriate approach for each individual.
The Women’s Health Initiative (2002) studied older women using synthetic oral estrogens and progestins, not bio-identical hormones. Later analyses showed bio-identical transdermal estrogen and oral progesterone do not increase breast cancer risk and may even reduce it when started near menopause (Manson et al., 2017; Davis et al., 2019).
Results vary depending on individual response and dose optimization. You can generally expect:
BHRT can be continued indefinitely when benefits outweigh risks. Hormones are monitored every 3-6 months; doses may be adjusted or tapered with age and physiologic changes.
