Introduction to Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a treatment programme designed to help women’s hormone levels achieve mental balance and physiological stability. Bioidentical hormone replacement for women can improve energy levels, libido, and resolve common side-effects of menopause such as hot flashes and sleep problems.
Feel Your Best at Any Age
As women age, their hormones levels will naturally decline. This is particularly apparent during and after menopause. Menopause represents an important transition in every woman’s life and brings with it many fluctuations in hormone levels. Unfortunately, this change can have uncomfortable effects on the body. Bioidentical hormones can provide relief during or after menopause.
With Dr. Grant Hamlet, we strive for you to feel your best. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can help you feel like yourself again. You can enjoy a more comfortable day-to-day life and engage in the activities you care about. We personalise our BHRT for you. You will benefit from Dr Grant Hamlet’s years of experience in anti-ageing and rejuvenation treatments. If you have been diagnosed with unbalanced hormones or are going through menopause, reach out to Dr. Grant Hamlet.
About Bioidentical Hormones
Glands within our bodies create hormones. Hormones are chemicals that allow you to function normally by regulating physiology and behaviour. From sex drive to physical development, hormones affect a lot of aspects of our lives. Issues can occur when people have low hormones or imbalanced levels. We can custom-tailor bioidentical hormone replacement for your life and the symptoms you experience.
Bioidentical hormones, also known as “natural hormone therapy” or BHRT, are especially effective because their molecular structure is identical to the hormones created by the body. Bioidentical hormones are created from the chemical makeup of yams and soy. Estrogen is collected from these plants and made into supplements that will balance out hormone levels. Bioidentical estrogens refer to 17 beta-estradiol, estrone, and estriol. Estradiol is an important hormone for women to receive because it is the primary hormone that decreases once menopause hits.
Restless sleep, discomfort during sleep, and foggy thinking are just a few of the symptoms women experience during and after menopause. Bioidentical hormones improve energy levels and allow women to enjoy activities like sex, exercise, and sleep. With increased metabolism, women find they have more energy, which helps contribute to additional healthy lifestyle changes. Not only will bioidentical hormone treatment improve your mood, but it will also boost your confidence.
Benefits of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for women offers a range of significant benefits that can dramatically improve your quality of life.
Improved Sleep
BHRT can help to regulate your sleep patterns, leading to a more restful night’s sleep and a feeling of being more refreshed and energised.
Increased Energy Levels
By restoring hormonal balance, the therapy can help to combat fatigue and revitalise your energy, allowing you to feel more active and vibrant.
Boosted Mood & Libido
BHRT can help to stabilise your moods, alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, and restore your sexual drive.
Aids with Weight Loss
By boosting your metabolism and helping to regulate your body’s systems, BHRT can aid in weight loss and help you to maintain a healthy weight.
Good Candidates
A good candidate for Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is any woman who is experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance, particularly those going through menopause. This therapy can be a safe and effective way to restore your vitality and improve your overall quality of life.
You may be a suitable candidate for BHRT if you are experiencing symptoms such as:
- Hot flashes

Your Consultation
During your consultation with Dr Hamlet, you will have the opportunity to learn all about bioidentical hormone therapy and how it can improve your life. Dr Hamlet will learn more about you and your desire for hormone improvement.
Before your consultation, please be prepared to share the following:
- Any medical conditions or treatments or drug allergies.
- Current medications, herbal supplements, vitamins, alcohol, tobacco, and drug use.
- Previous surgeries.
This information will help him understand your situation and whether bioidentical hormone therapy is your ideal solution. Ask any question you can think of; Dr Hamlet believes every question offers a chance to become educated on the use of bioidentical hormones.
If bioidentical hormones can help you, Dr Hamlet will explain the treatment process and what to expect after a few weeks of customised treatments. There is no such thing as a universal hormone replacement programme that will benefit everyone the same. Personalised treatments create the best results because everyone’s body is different.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Treatment
Following your consultation and thorough assessment, Dr. Hamlet will provide you with a personalised prescription for bioidentical hormones. He will take the time to explain exactly how to use your medication and what to expect from the treatment.
Results
You may notice some improvements after a few weeks. However, your hormones will take a couple of months to regulate. At this point, you should notice improvements in your sleep, energy levels, moods, and many different aspects of your life.
Your results will be long-lasting. We encourage patients to continue maintenance treatments to keep up their incredible results and continue to feel their best. Studies show that bioidentical hormones can help with many conditions, including skin ageing and preserving bone mineral density.(1)(2) BHRT is a versatile treatment that can treat conditions in women who cannot tolerate other types of treatments.(3)
We schedule follow-up consultations every few months so that Dr Hamlet can check your hormone levels and ensure your treatment is working. Adjustments will be made to ensure you continue to experience optimal results.
FAQs
Can I Get Pregnant on Bioidentical Hormones?
If you are going through menopause, it’s possible you can get pregnant. Depending on what stage of menopause you are going through, you can still become pregnant. If you are concerned about pregnancy, be sure to discuss this during your consultation with Dr Hamlet.
Can Bioidentical Hormones Help Me Lose Weight?
Yes. Hormones help regulate many factors in your body, including metabolism. Low levels of oestradiol often lead to weight gain. Increased hormone levels can boost your metabolism. Many women lose weight when they undergo bioidentical hormone therapy.
What Is the Difference Between HRT and Bioidentical Hormones?
The primary difference is that bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to the ones created by our bodies. Bioidentical hormones are formulated from plant oestrogens and are not synthetic. If you have low hormone levels or imbalanced hormones, bioidentical hormones are the perfect solution. Bioidentical hormones have been shown by studies to have less associated risks of breast cancer and cardiovascular disease coupled with greater efficacy at balancing hormones than synthetic and animal-derived products.(4)
What Are the Side Effects of Bioidentical Hormones?
Like every procedure, BHRT carries some potential for side effects. These effects can include acne, headaches, and spotting. Dr Hamlet will take the time to thoroughly explain these during the consultation. Our patients’ health is the top priority. Dr Hamlet never takes unnecessary risks. Dr Hamlet will use this meeting to determine if bioidentical therapy is a safe, healthy solution for you. If Dr Hamlet deems bioidentical therapy unsafe, he will not pursue that treatment and will help you develop an alternative solution.
How Long Does It Take Bioidentical Hormones to Start Working?
It will take a few weeks for your hormone levels to adjust and balance out. Results may not manifest for a few months.
Pricing
The cost of your Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is unique to each patient, as your treatment programme is entirely customised to your body’s specific needs and hormonal balance. The final price is determined by several factors, including the number of treatments required to regulate your hormones and the follow-up care needed to maintain them. A complete and all-inclusive cost breakdown will be provided during your personal consultation with Dr. Hamlet.
