Bio-Identical Hormones work in synchronicity with one another, which is why we must address multiple hormones to achieve optimal hormonal balance. When we restore hormone balance with Bio-Identical Hormones we are basically, replacing the hormones we are no longer producing. As we age, our hormone production decreases. Women can start producing less hormones in their twenties and men in their thirties.
