The Benefits of Hormone Replacement Compounding

The Benefits of Hormone Replacement Compounding

As anyone who has ever been through puberty can tell you—never underestimate the power of hormones. These incredible chemical messengers control the entire body, affecting many areas of your health, such as your mood, your metabolism, and your sexual and reproductive function. When hormones are balanced, it’s smooth sailing. Hormonal ups and downs due to menopause or other factors, however, can wreak havoc on a woman’s life. Thankfully, compounded hormone replacement therapy (HRT) offers some incredible benefits that will restore balance, helping you take control of your life again.

What is Compounded Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Compounded natural hormones have the exact same chemical constitution as human hormones. The body recognizes them, allowing them to copy the function of the hormones the body creates naturally.

Working with your physician or health care provider, a compounding pharmacist can customized a prescription to fit each individual’s specific needs. HRT can be compounded in a variety of strengths and dosage forms, including capsules, topical and vaginal creams, gels, oral liquids, lozenges, vaginal and rectal suppositories, solutions, tablets, troches, and other dosage forms.
