Today, it is not just about delaying ageing but unlocking the true health span, restoring vitality, and reducing dependence on medications and other pharmaceutical products. Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) is increasingly becoming popular among patients who are looking to live longer and age healthily.
If you are one of these individuals, and we hope you are, our experts Medi-Gyn have got you a whole bunch of secrets around bioidentical hormones and your health span– research-backed and doctor-approved!
Bioidentical Hormones & Your Health-span – A Must to Know
When discussing healthy ageing, we must mention longevity, which takes centre stage. However, health span continues to remain the gold standard. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), health span is “a length of chronological time beginning at birth and ending at some subsequent time when an individual is no longer in good health and/or is suffering from diseases or disabilities of aging.” It is essentially the time in life you spend free from chronic diseases.
While exercise, nutrition, and stress management are essential, bioidentical hormones often become the secret sauce for graceful ageing.
Read on to learn more about Medi-Gyn’s Reverse Ageing Programme and unlock the hidden secrets of bioidentical hormones and health span!
1. They don’t just replace, they restore
Bioidentical hormones are created to mimic the natural molecular structure of the body’s natural hormones perfectly. While synthetic hormones tend to have mild chemical variations, bioidentical hormones merge seamlessly with hormonal receptors, restoring physiological balance rather than overriding cellular function or forcing untoward changes.
This results in a host of positive benefits for the body, such as:
- Fewer side effects
- More reliable outcomes
- Improved mood
- Boost in metabolism
- Increased energy
- Better skin resilience
- Enhanced bone strength
- Boost in cognitive sharpness
Studies have shown that patients often have a better response and fewer adverse reactions with bioidentical hormones compared to synthetic alternatives, particularly regarding cardiovascular and breast cancer risks.
Experts at Medi-Gyn perform personalised consultations to ensure optimum results.
2. They protect your brain, heart, and bones
Hormones are much more than sexual or fertility regulators. They play a protective role in almost every body system, especially the brain, heart, and bones. Here’s how!
Oestrogen: Not only does estrogen relieve hot flashes, but it also helps shield the brain from cognitive decline and may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease when started early in menopause.
Progesterone: This hormone isn’t just for reproductive health; it promotes restful sleep, calmness, and maintains bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Testosterone: Often associated with male health, it is equally crucial for women in supporting muscle mass, metabolic health, and cardiovascular resilience.
A balanced hormonal profile, using bioidentical therapies, helps you age while preserving natural function and slows down the degeneration of the body systems.
3. Timing is everything
Did you know when you take BHRT can make a world of difference?
The benefits of bioidentical hormones depend on the timing of the introduction of hormones. Studies have shown that there exists a “window of opportunity”, for example, in women approaching menopause.
- Early intervention, ideally within the first few years post-menopause, offers the most effective neuroprotection, cardiovascular support, and bone strength.
- Introducing BHRT very late (usually beyond 10 years of menopause) might not give you the same protective benefits as it does in timely intervention. In fact, in some cases, it may carry additional risks.
At Medi-Gyn, we tailor the dosage and timing of bioidentical hormone therapy as part of our Reverse Ageing Programme to align with natural hormonal peaks (estrogen and progesterone often at bedtime, and testosterone in the morning) for optimal effectiveness.
4. They work best when part of a whole
True physiological hormonal harmony cannot be achieved by sporadic consumption of pills or topical patches alone. Research and clinical experience confirm that bioidentical hormone therapy can reach its full potential when combined with a personalised and holistic strategy, just as we deliver here at Medi-Gyn. These typically include the following:
- Nutrition rich in antioxidants, essential fats, and phytoestrogens helps support hormonal balance.
- Regular physical activity maintains metabolism and muscle strength.
- Sleep hygiene and stress reduction methods can enhance the benefits of BHRT, promoting hormonal balance and cellular repair.
- Functional medicine approaches ensure that therapy is custom-tailored, closely monitored, and dynamically adjusted to meet each patient’s unique needs.
In Medi-Gyn’s Reverse Ageing Programme, we optimise your health span while enhancing your bodily functions as a preventive measure and to reverse any existing signs of ageing or manage potential age-related conditions.
While other synthetic hormones and hormone replacement therapies promise to be ‘magic bullets, ’ bioidentical hormones act more like vital building blocks in a wellness puzzle.
5. They can reduce the need for medications
Balanced bioidentical hormone levels often lessen the dependence on medications that address symptoms of ageing. A few of these include:
- Reduced risk and need for osteoporosis drugs, as bone density is supported.
- Fewer antidepressant and sleep aid prescriptions, due to better mood stability and sleep quality.
- Lower requirement for statins and diabetes treatments, given the hormone’s positive effect on metabolism and cardiovascular health.
Instead of managing ageing symptoms via multiple drugs, experts at Medi-Gyn recommend BHRT for:
- Better predictability of results and greater symptom control
- Reduced reliance on pharmaceutical formulations
The Final Word!
Bioidentical hormone therapy is not just an anti-ageing treatment but an effective solution to prolong your health span. When used timely and accurately, BHRT allows you to live stronger, longer, and more joyfully.
At Medi-Gyn, we empower you to know your factors of epigenetic ageing ahead of time, and use those reports to tailor our recommendations for you!
