My quality of life was vastly improved by the compounded (prescribed) hormones. My mental clarity/memory/capacity, my physical sense of wellness, my balance, my pelvic health, and much more were far more enhanced by bioidentical hormones than by conventional treatment. As it is important to work holistically with the earth in farming, for healthier soil and for those who eat the food from that soil, it is important to treat the body holistically for a healthier outcome. Salutatory or health upbuilding approaches and their benefits far outweigh band aid approaches that do not treat the root cause, in my experience and in evidence-based studies. Bioidentical hormones are health upbuilding of hormonal health, which affects all systems in the body- as experienced in this body!
