Our customized bio-identical hormone preparations meet the unique requirements of each individual. With a physician’s or clinician’s prescription, options can be chosen regarding the specific hormones required, the strength, dosage form, and the most suitable route for administration.

What is Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement?

​Bio-identical hormones are derived from wild yam extract through a process done in a lab to reach the end product. The base structure, diosgenin, is similar to human progesterone. Progesterone is the mother hormone from which DHEA, cortisol, estrogen, and testosterone are usually derived. That means with minor modification in the lab; we can attain these molecules from the original progesterone molecule that our body perceives as its hormone. Research has shown that Bio-identical hormones are safer than conventional hormones.
