It’s time to take care of yourself!
If you’re suffering from menopause symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, memory loss, weight gain, and low libido, Flourish can help you restore your hormone balance through bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
What are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones have the same structure as the hormones your body naturally produces. The goal of BHRT is to help you return to a normal hormonal balance. Flourish has been providing these custom solutions for women’s BHRT for more than a decade. Commonly prescribed bioidentical hormones include estrogens, DHEA, testosterone, progesterone, and cortisol.
What makes compounded hormone replacement unique is that our compounding laboratory will customize formulations to meet each patient’s specific needs including strength, combinations, and dosing options such as oral capsules, topical creams and gels, vaginal suppositories, and sublingual troches or lozenges.
