BHRT
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a treatment designed to restore hormonal balance in the body using hormones that are chemically identical to those produced naturally. As individuals age or face hormonal disruptions due to various factors, they may experience symptoms such as fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and declining libido. BHRT aims to alleviate these symptoms by providing customized hormone solutions tailored to each individual's needs. These therapies can significantly improve quality of life by promoting both physical and emotional wellness. By considering BHRT, you are taking a proactive step towards regaining your vitality and overall health, ensuring that you feel your best at every stage of life.

Whether you're navigating perimenopause, menopause, or struggling with hormonal imbalance at any age, BHRT offers a safe, personalized solution to restore balance and improve overall quality of life. Symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, brain fog, weight fluctuations, low libido, sleep disturbances, and hot flashes are common—but they are not something you have to simply live with.

Testosterone levels naturally decline with age, but for many men, this shift can lead to frustrating symptoms like fatigue, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction, mood changes, brain fog, and poor sleep. BHRT helps restore healthy hormone levels using bioidentical hormones that closely mimic those produced by your body, supporting optimal function and overall well-being.
Understanding the Difference: Bioidentical vs. Natural vs. Synthetic
Bioidentical hormones are made to be chemically identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. They're often derived from plants like soy or yams and are synthesized in a lab to closely match your body’s needs. Because of this, they’re typically better recognized and used by the body, making them an effective and personalized option for treating hormone imbalance or menopause symptoms.
Natural hormones can come from plants or animals, but they don’t always match human hormones exactly. While some herbal supplements may offer relief, they aren’t as targeted, standardized, or backed by research as bioidentical hormone therapy.
Synthetic hormones are also lab-made, but their chemical structure is different from what your body naturally produces. This difference can lead to more side effects and less predictable results. For example, synthetic progesterone (progestin) is commonly used in traditional hormone therapy but doesn’t behave the same way as natural progesterone. These hormones are often mass-produced in fixed doses, making them less customizable to individual needs.
For those looking for a more personalized approach that works in harmony with the body, bioidentical hormones offer a tailored and often safer alternative.

Our services are not covered by provincial health plans, but may be eligible for reimbursement through a Health Spending Account (HSA) if you have one.
Laboratory testing ordered as part of your BHRT care is typically covered by provincial health coverage.
We do not offer saliva testing, as it is considered less accurate and reliable compared to serum (blood) testing.
If additional lab work or diagnostic imaging is required in relation to your BHRT treatment, our Nurse Practitioner may order it directly. For unrelated concerns or broader diagnostic needs, we will refer you back to your family physician or primary care provider.
