Colorado Centers for Hormone Balance
At Mountain Streams MedicalWhat does Bio-identical mean? Why is Bio-identical superior to Synthetic?
Traditional hormone replacement therapy began in the 1940s. Back then, the estrogen was derived from pregnant horse urine. Today, eighty years later, modern medicine continues to use animal-derived (non-human) hormones. Why?
Although there are many known side effects and serious health issues linked to synthetic hormone replacement therapy, they have been all that medicine had to offer. Until now. We are providing our clients with the best HRT available today. We utilize the most effective method of delivery (pellet), the best quality hormone (bio-identical) and our clients are enjoying the best outcomes.
Bio-identical hormones, especially well studied testosterone, have not been shown to have any serious side effects. The quality of life and health benefits of bio-identical hormones are huge for that segment with deficient levels…a segment which will include most of us eventually!

HORMONE REPLACEMENT BENEFITS FOR WOMEN
Management of Hormonal Imbalances
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is commonly used to treat hormonal imbalances in humans. For example, women experiencing menopause often undergo estrogen replacement therapy to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. Similarly, individuals with hypothyroidism may receive synthetic thyroid hormones to restore normal hormone levels and alleviate associated symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and depression.
Gender Transition
Hormone replacement therapy plays a vital role in gender transition for transgender individuals. Transgender women (assigned male at birth) often undergo hormone therapy with estrogen and anti-androgens to feminize their physical characteristics, promote breast development, reduce body hair, and suppress male sexual characteristics. Similarly, transgender men (assigned female at birth) may take testosterone to develop masculine features, such as facial hair growth, voice deepening, and muscle mass increase.

Fertility Treatments
Hormone replacement can be a crucial component of fertility treatments. In women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) or other assisted reproductive technologies, hormones are administered to stimulate the development of multiple eggs in the ovaries, increase the chances of successful fertilization, and support embryo implantation. Additionally, hormone replacement may be used to correct hormonal imbalances that can hinder fertility in both men and women.
Osteoporosis Prevention and Treatment
Hormone replacement therapy is sometimes prescribed to postmenopausal women to prevent or manage osteoporosis, a condition characterized by a decrease in bone density. Estrogen therapy helps maintain bone strength by slowing down bone loss and reducing the risk of fractures. However, the decision to use hormone replacement for osteoporosis prevention or treatment involves careful consideration of individual risk factors and potential side effects, as it is not suitable for everyone.
