Bioidentical hormones are compounds that are chemically identical to the hormones produced naturally in the human body, commonly used in hormone replacement therapy to address imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. In clinical practice, they are often prescribed to manage symptoms of menopause, andropause, and other hormonal disorders. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are typically compounded to match an individual’s specific hormonal needs, although their safety and efficacy remain topics of ongoing research. Supplements are frequently used alongside these therapies to support hormonal balance, improve metabolism, and address nutrient deficiencies, but should be integrated cautiously under medical supervision.
