Why Having Labs Done for B-HRT is Crucial

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (B-HRT) can be life-changing, offering significant relief for those dealing with hormonal imbalances or deficiencies. Whether for menopause or managing conditions like hypogonadism, B-HRT requires careful monitoring. Regular lab work plays an integral role in ensuring the therapy's safety, effectiveness, and personalization.

Lab tests are essential for several reasons. First, understanding your starting hormone levels provides a foundation for treatment planning. Additionally, results from these tests guide the selection of hormone types, dosages, and administration methods. Regular lab work also helps detect potential side effects, such as elevated red blood cell counts or liver dysfunction. Finally, testing confirms whether the therapy is achieving the desired outcomes.
