What is a Bio-Identical Hormone?
Every human being produces hormones on a day to day basis. The hormones used at Precision Compounding are derived from yams which are all natural. These hormones have the exact same chemical structure as the hormones that already float around in our bloodstream. When we use these bio-identical hormones they fit into our receptors like a lock and key. Synthetic hormones are not structurally the same as our bodies’ natural hormones and they can cause terrible side effects.
Everyone’s body is completely different. Using a cookie cutter approach to balance peoples’ specific hormones is a very difficult process. We believe in the triad approach of medicine which includes the patient, physician, and pharmacist. Our compounding pharmacists have the ability to consult with patients and physicians to formulate a customized bio-identical formulation for a specific patient.

For Males:
Hypogonadism is a condition in males that indicates lower than baseline amounts of testosterone. Conventionally, hypogonadism has almost always been handled utilizing what is known as testosterone supplementation. The scenario involving low levels of testosterone is a comprehensive issue that necessitates an understanding of numerous factors, including incorrect and unconventional brain signaling, abnormal excesses of estrogen, and the incapacity of the testes to manufacture enough testosterone.
