Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) can be a helpful treatment option for women experiencing the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. The natural hormones used in BHRT are easily recognized by the body and used as substitutes for the hormones the body can no longer produce in the amounts needed to maintain hormonal harmony. Denver Menopause Doctor, Shauna Wright, D.O. in Denver is experienced in the use of bioidentical hormones as a treatment option for perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.
Perimenopause
Most women become aware of their transition into perimenopause in their mid to late 40s. Perimenopause normally lasts for several years; its duration varies for every woman, and its course is difficult to predict. Perimenopause is the time when a woman’s body transitions from her fertile, child-bearing years, into middle age. During this natural transition, the body undergoes biologic changes resulting from declining ovarian hormone production and a woman’s menstrual cycle becomes irregular and varied, and fertility diminished. Perimenopause can last 4-6 years and usually ends after twelve months of amenorrhea, or no menstruation, which is when a woman enters menopause.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is a safe and effective option for easing the symptoms of perimenopause. Bioidentical hormone therapy can reduce your symptoms of perimenopause by bringing balance back to your endocrine system. Natural hormone doctor, Shauna Wright, D.O. in Denver works closely with you to identify the correct amount of hormones for your body to bring you back to health and balance.
Menopause
Natural menopause is a condition that every healthy woman will experience as she reaches middle age, typically between the ages of 35-59. It is a natural, gradual process that occurs when a woman’s ovaries produce less estrogen and progesterone, and her lifetime supply of eggs becomes depleted.
