As an experienced hormone compounding pharmacy specializing in bioidentical hormones, Renew Medical Clinic provides customized BHRT to help patients look and feel their best.
Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones produced naturally in the human body. They are often derived from plant sources and custom-compounded in a hormone compounding pharmacy like Renew Medical Clinic to meet each patient's individual hormone needs.
Customized bioidentical hormone replacement offers many advantages over traditional hormone therapy:
The first step is to get hormone levels tested by an endocrinologist specializing in female hormones or bioidentical hormone doctor to check for deficiencies or imbalances.
Common lab tests include:
Based on clinical evaluation and lab results, the doctor can determine if BHRT is recommended. Ongoing monitoring helps optimize dosing to meet treatment goals.

There are many myths surrounding bioidentical hormone therapy. Let's separate fact from fiction:
| Myth | Fact |
|---|---|
| Bioidentical hormones are not FDA-approved | The custom compounds made in pharmacies are not FDA-approved, but the bioidentical ingredients used are approved. |
| BHRT is unsafe or risky | Bioidentical hormones have a safe clinical track record when properly dosed and monitored by a physician. |
| The body cannot absorb synthetic hormones | Many FDA-approved products contain bioidentical estrogen and progestin that the body recognizes. |
| Plant-based hormones are always better | The molecular structure matches human hormones - not necessarily the origin. |
| Saliva testing is inaccurate | Saliva tests can accurately measure unbound free hormone levels. Values correlate reasonably with serum tests. |
As you can see, these common myths about bioidentical HRT lack scientific backing. Custom-compounded BHRT is a safe, effective option when prescribed by a qualified, experienced bioidentical hormone doctor.
Making positive lifestyle changes reduces symptoms and enhances BHRT results. Our clinicians provide personalized recommendations to help patients achieve optimal wellness on their hormone replacement journey.
