BHRT – The Solution To Menopause Mood Swings
In some ways , menopause mood swings can be one of the trickiest problems to solve .
Because they come down to a fundamental hormone imbalance , the only way to truly stop them is to create harmony in your hormones once again – no easy feat when you ’ re going through the menopause !
The good news is that there is a treatment that can help you …
How BHRT Helps Menopause Mood Swings
BHRT uses bioidentical hormones created from natural sources to rebalance your hormones and give you control over your mood swings .
By establishing what your natural hormone levels are and rebalancing them with a personally tailored prescription of bioidentical hormones , we can solve your menopause mood swings at the source .
When your hormones are balanced once again you ’ ll feel calmer , happier and notice a reduction in other menopause problems such as hot flushes , insomnia and genitourinary syndrome of menopause .
Is BHRT Safe ?
The first thing to understand about hormone replacement is that HRT and BHRT are different .
HRT uses synthetic hormones that are very similar to your body ’ s natural hormones – but not identical . Because the body is very sensitive to even tiny changes , these minor discrepancies can make a big difference . It ’ s this difference that creates the potential for the unwanted side effects that you may have already heard about with HRT .
BHRT is a little different . It ’ s derived from diosgenin , which is naturally and ethically sourced from Mexican yams . These bioidentical hormones are structurally the same as your body ’ s natural hormones , which means they are much more tolerated and there are considerably fewer side effects .
Giving you a safe and effective way to take control of your hormones and resolve your menopause mood swings .
