Memory Loss, Aches/Pains, Sexual Health, and More

According to internationally known practitioner and speaker Pamela W. Smith, MD, MPH, MS, all the hormones in the body are a symphony. Much like how an orchestra must play in tune, the patient’s hormonal symphony must be in tune throughout their life for them to have optimal health.

Both men and women throughout their lifetime may experience some form of hormonal imbalance which leads to different symptoms. Many conditions can be dealt with without medications, but there are symptoms that may make life difficult and need a more personalized approach to addressing them.

What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a custom made preparation made by a specialized compounding pharmacy like Community Clinical based on a doctor’s prescription for addressing hormonal imbalances.

Bioidentical hormones may be very helpful for people who suffer from the potentially devastating effects of hormonal imbalance or even for people who might not produce enough hormones naturally.
