Here's what makes us different.

As a collaborative pharmacy, we work with you and your doctor to prepare hormone replacement therapy that is tailored to your individual needs. We are able to compound hormones in a variety of forms and will work with you until we find the formulation that is right for you.

Balanced Bioidentical Hormones vs. Synthetic Hormones

Instead of traditional synthetic hormones, we specialize in compounding balanced bioidentical hormone replacement therapies. Hormones are considered bioidentical because they are the exact duplicates of those that your body naturally makes. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are individually prepared to fit the needs of each patient.

In a Women's Health Initiative Trial, Conventional hormone replacement therapy using synthetic hormones showed increased risks of stroke, heart attack, breast cancer, blood clots, and a possible link between synthetic hormones and Alzheimer's disease.

Synthetic Hormones Can Cause:

  • Increased risk of breast cancer
  • Increased risk of heart disease
  • Fluid retention and edema
  • Weight gain
  • Blood clots
  • Depression
  • Increased anxiety and nervousness
  • Increased risk of dementia
  • Headaches
  • Hair loss
  • Skin discoloration

Most importantly, these synthetic hormones do not resemble the natural hormones you have in your body! There is no classic hormone profile of a woman to develop a one-size-fits-all solution, therefore it is important to individualize the diagnosis and the therapy by using bioidentical hormones.

All Compounded preparations require a prescription from your doctor.
