One of the keys to the success of compounded hormones is that they can be tailored to the needs of each individual patient. Another benefit is that these compounds, also called bio-identical hormones, are chemically identical to those made by the human body.
Dr. Jim Hrncir, one of the pioneers of modern pharmaceutical compounding, explains why these factors are so important in the treatment of perimenopausal, menopausal, and even post-menopausal women. Along with Inna Topiler, host of Health Mysteries Solved, Dr. Hrncir takes a deep dive into the science behind compounded hormones and explains the nuts-and-bolts of treatment, including how to establish a baseline for care and the importance of continuous monitoring.
Dr. Hrncir and Ms. Toplier provide a fascinating, detailed look at this fast-growing field of medicine and how it helps millions of women worldwide overcome the debilitating effects of hormone imbalance.
