Imagine my joy as I heard this on the national news morning shows! FINALLY! The world is catching on!
But as I watched the segments, I learned they are just re-analyzing the Women’s Health Initiative study data from 2002 on synthetic hormones. Since it was on synthetic hormones, they had to add that it is safe to start under the age of 60 due to the increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and deep vein thrombosis.
What they didn’t say is that Bio-Identical Hormones have not been shown to have any clotting factors that could lead to these events.
I have been starting women on Bio-Identical Hormones from ages 35-82 without any issues. Sure, life is going to happen – people are diagnosed with cancer, stroke, and heart attack with or without hormones. However, the latest studies on Bio-Identical Hormones show they are supportive for the heart, brain, bones, breast, prostate, and relationships!
So why take Bio-Identical Hormones? Because they allow your body to feel and function as it did maybe 10-15 years ago. Restoring your youthful hormone balance is paramount to feeling and looking your best – no matter your age. Some symptoms of decreased hormone levels include difficulty sleeping, lack of energy, loss of mental focus and memory, moodiness, anxiety, and depression. Many people notice weight gain, decreased muscle strength, joint pain, and reduced sexual desire and performance.
Bio-identical hormones are derived from plants (Bio) and have identical molecular structure (identical form) as the hormones we naturally produce in our bodies.
Despite efforts to discredit Bio-Identical Hormones, scientific research keeps getting better and better, proving not only the quality-of-life benefits but also the health benefits of maintaining optimized hormonal balance.
