Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, hormone levels can become imbalanced, leading to undesirable symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones with bioidentical versions helps restore optimal levels, thereby reducing symptoms.
Imbalanced hormone levels often manifest in various ways:
Fatigue, low libido, hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irritability, anxiety, trouble sleeping, etc. These significantly impact one's quality of life.
Left untreated, hormone imbalances may eventually increase one's risk for osteoporosis, heart disease, or other conditions. Identifying and addressing hormone deficiencies earlier on is advisable.
Comprehensive lab testing provides crucial data on current hormone levels in the body. Butterfly Hormone Center utilizes advanced testing to accurately identify deficiencies. Based on the results, bioidentical hormones are prescribed in carefully-tailored doses to restore optimal balances.
Testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, thyroid hormones (T3, T4), etc. Deficiencies vary by individual. Butterfly Hormone Center determines which hormones to test for each patient’s needs.

In addition to managing treatment protocols, Butterfly Hormone Center also provides continuous access to clinicians, health coaching, community referrals, and other support to ensure patients feel fully cared for along their treatment journey.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report preferring them because they more closely mimic the body's natural hormones. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits of bioidenticals compared to traditional hormone therapy.
If experiencing undesirable symptoms, get tested for possible hormone imbalances. If deficiencies are identified, consider bioidentical hormone therapy for safe and effective treatment integrated into comprehensive wellness care.
