Who is a Good Candidate for BHRT (Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy)?

Written by Robert Johnson - February 10, 2023

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) has been a popular form of treatment for various conditions related to hormonal imbalance. It is an effective way to alleviate symptoms associated with hormone imbalances and can help improve overall health and well-being. The right candidate for BHRT is someone who has already tried other forms of treatment, such as diet and lifestyle changes, but those treatments have not helped alleviate symptoms.

For optimal results, it is important to determine if BHRT is the best solution for your individual needs. To do this, you should seek out a qualified healthcare provider or specialist with experience in BHRT who can evaluate your hormone levels and recommend the most suitable therapeutic course of action.

Signs and Conditions that May Indicate You're a Good Candidate for BHRT

Before deciding on BHRT, it's essential to understand which signs might indicate you’re an ideal candidate for this form of therapy:

  • Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight
  • Fatigue or feeling low energy levels throughout the day
  • Hot flashes or night sweats
  • Difficulty sleeping or insomnia
  • Changes in libido/sexual desire
  • Intense mood swings
  • Depressed moods
  • Memory problems or difficulty concentrating

It’s also important to note that individuals who have undergone surgeries such as hysterectomies may be good candidates for BHRT as they are more prone to experiencing hormonal imbalances due to the change in their hormonal environment. However, individuals who are pregnant should not undergo any kind of hormone therapy.

Additionally, there are certain medical conditions that increase an individual's risk of developing imbalances, including: polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), adrenal fatigue/insufficiency, thyroid disorders like Hashimoto's disease, diabetes mellitus type 2 and menopause. If you are living with any of these conditions and struggling with symptom management then you may be an ideal candidate for this form of therapy.
