Hormone Replacement Therapy
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is essential for managing the various symptoms associated with menopause and hormonal imbalances. Our customized HRT formulations are designed to provide relief through a variety of delivery methods, including oral capsules, topical creams, and vaginal treatments.
Oral Formulations for HRT
Our Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) oral formulations are designed to provide personalized hormonal balance and support. These tailored oral treatments offer convenience and effective hormone delivery, helping patients manage symptoms of menopause, hormonal imbalances, and other conditions related to hormone deficiencies.
Topical Formulations for HRT
Topical hormone replacement therapy provides a non-invasive and effective method for delivering hormones directly into the bloodstream through the skin. These customized creams are formulated to balance estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels, alleviating symptoms of menopause, hormonal imbalances, and other related conditions. With a precise dosage and easy application, topical HRT allows for flexibility and convenience in maintaining hormonal health.
Examples: Progesterone, Estriol, Estradiol, Testosterone Topical Creams
The Estradiol 0.5 mg/Estriol 2 mg/Progesterone 100 mg/Testosterone 2 mg/ml Topical Cream is a compounded medication that combines four hormones to address various conditions related to hormonal imbalances or deficiencies. This cream is formulated to be applied topically, which allows for the hormones to be absorbed directly through the skin into the bloodstream, providing a more targeted approach and potentially reducing systemic side effects compared to oral administration.
Estradiol and estriol are forms of estrogen, a hormone that plays a critical role in female reproductive health and is also important for maintaining skin elasticity, bone density, and cardiovascular health. In this cream, estradiol can help alleviate symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings, while estriol, being a weaker estrogen, may offer a gentler option with fewer side effects. The combination of these two estrogens aims to provide a balanced approach to estrogen replacement therapy.
Progesterone is another hormone that is essential for regulating the menstrual cycle and supporting pregnancy. In postmenopausal women, progesterone is often used in combination with estrogen to prevent the overgrowth of the lining of the uterus (endometrial hyperplasia) that can occur with estrogen therapy alone. Progesterone can also help improve sleep quality and reduce anxiety and mood swings.
Testosterone, although commonly known as a male hormone, is also present in females and plays a role in maintaining libido, muscle mass, and bone density. In women, low levels of testosterone can lead to decreased sexual desire, fatigue, and loss of muscle strength. The inclusion of testosterone in this formulation can help address these issues.
Vaginal Hormone Replacement Therapy Formulations
Our vaginal HRT formulations are crafted to provide direct relief for menopause-related symptoms, including dryness and discomfort, by delivering hormones exactly where they are needed most. These treatments offer a convenient and effective way to maintain hormonal balance and improve overall vaginal health.
Example: Estriol 0.1% Topical/Vaginal Cream is a semisolid formulation designed for precise application in the vaginal area. It is a compounded medication that combines estriol, a naturally occurring form of estrogen, with a topical cream base. This formulation is dispensed in a tube for convenient use.
