This document discusses hormone replacement therapy options for menopause. It begins by describing how conventional hormone therapy was widely used and believed to be effective, but research found it increased health risks. This confused women and doctors as it disrupted the conventional beliefs. The document then introduces bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) as a recent alternative. BHRT uses hormones identical to those naturally produced by the body, resulting in fewer side effects than conventional treatments. It has gained popularity in the US and Europe as it provides relief from menopause symptoms. However, care must be taken to find an experienced practitioner and compounding pharmacist to create a personalized treatment for each individual woman.

There is so much confusion in our society revolving around hormone replacement therapy as to whether they cause harm or whether they heal, repair, and regenerate. Should we use them? Should we stay away from them? We get messages on a daily basis from social media, advertisements on TV, from our doctors, from your Aunt Martha, or whoever decides to chime in. We hear things like…..
•Hormones cause cancer, especially estrogen
•Don’t stay on hormones for very long
•Only take the smallest dose
•“Doping”
•It hasn’t been studied enough
•It hasn’t been studied on a large enough population
•It hasn’t been studied long enough
People with no education, training, or experience in treating hormone deficiencies and hormone replacement therapy give very profound statements regarding hormones and people’s health. This, coupled with social media’s highway of information and distribution, is why we are so confused about hormone replacement therapy. Our society is more confused about hormones and more afraid of hormone replacement therapy then any other time in history. The fear instilled in doctors and women purposely keeps them away from taking them.

HRT aims to bring those hormone levels back up, making many women feel better and relieving their symptoms.

Hormonal contraceptive- medical information ( all about hormonal contracepti...martinshaji
Hormonal contraception refers to birth control methods that act on the endocrine system. Almost all methods are composed of steroid hormones, although in India one selective estrogen receptor modulator is marketed as a contraceptive.Hormonal methods of birth control prevent eggs from being released from the ovaries, thicken cervical mucus to prevent sperm from entering the uterus, and thin the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation. Hormone pills come in packs. Most packs contain 3 weeks of hormone pills.
this describes all the aspects of hormonal contraceptives in brief .

Bio-identical Hormone Therapy
1. Women suffering from menopause primarily focus to
getting treatment in form of hormone therapy that has
been practiced and suggested from many years. It has
always been suggested by well known hormone therapists
directly involved in the healing by hormone replacement,
but they were unfamiliar to the findings that didn't show
a favorable result on the part of this treatment. The fact
was uncovered a few years ago, when it was found that
the health risk correlated was more, as compared to the
definite attainment in this respect.
2. The result of this research confused the affected women
and their medical practitioners alike. All of a sudden, this
research destroyed the widely held belief about HRT, and
rendered it not only useless but also dangerous to the
health. No one had any idea how menopause symptoms
could be managed any more. This crisis not only distressed
countless of women who were, at that time, already using
HRT, but also a many more women who were at the edge
of entering the age of menopause.
3. In this age, women have made it a point not to suffer
silently. What women usually do is to do some
investigation, and look for other options available to them
for coping with menopause and improving their lives.
4. A recent option available to women who want to control
symptoms of menopause is the Bio-identical Hormone
Replacement Therapy. The treatment is simply known as
BHRT. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy is also
open to controversy; the treatment has gained a lot of
recognition lately. BHRT also became recognized since
discussion regarding this therapy was also aired on many
TV talk shows.
5. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy has been
practiced in the United States of America by many doctors
for the past few years, bringing relief to hundreds of
thousands of women who are experiencing menopause
symptoms. In Europe, the therapy had been in use even
before it was introduced in America.
6. The causes of the ever growing demand for BHRT are very
simple: 1.Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
contains hormones that are identical to the hormones that
are naturally produced in the human body. The body
cannot differentiate between the hormones that are
produced by itself, and the ones administered through
BHRT. This helps in delivering effects which have little or
no side-effects compared to the conventional hormone
treatments.
7. 1.The hormones used in this therapy are chemically
identical to the naturally produced hormones. Since the
chemical composition of the hormones is the same, the
body is unable to distinguish between the naturally
produced hormones, and the hormones that are
administered as part of Bio-identical Hormone
Replacement Therapy. This results in minimal or no side-
effects to the affected person.
9. One must note that Bio-identical Hormone Replacement
Therapy can be best carried out with the active support of
a professional pharmacy compounder. A medical
practitioner needs to work with the pharmacist, because
every woman having menopause symptoms is unique.
Therefore each woman should be given a prescription that
is exclusive to her. Such a treatment can only be prepared
by a seasoned pharmacist.
10. One more concern still left on the part of the sufferer, is
the choice of right therapist who offers his service in BHRT
before the initiation of the whole process. This could be
very risky, if care is not taken for this aspect. As the
requirement of the hormone replacement therapist is
increasing, more doctors are being involved in the field.
Moreover during the therapy, it is noteworthy that BHRT
must work in alliance with the pharmacy to produce a
more constructive outcome. As every woman is unique, so
is her hormone nature, and her menopause symptoms
that need to be dealt with utmost care. It must be
designed according to the indication of the patient. If
correct composition is not prepared, it can result in a
negative impact. And absolute results will be difficult to
attain in this very situation. At every step it is very
