Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

Hormone levels naturally fluctuate and drop with age during perimenopause and menopause. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a form of natural hormone replacement aimed at relieving the many different symptoms associated with a decline in estrogen, progesterone or testosterone levels.

Bio-identical hormones are often preferred over synthetic hormones because they are biologically identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body.

Synthetic HRT uses hormones derived from animals or synthesized in laboratories that, while comparable, are not identical, to the hormones naturally created within the body.

Heidi Rula, MD is able to prescribe a customized blend of Natural HRT that is tailored to each of her patient's unique and specific needs.

Bio-identical hormones come in many different forms, including pills and self-injections, creams, patches, gels, drops placed under the tongue as well as nasal sprays.
