Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) for Women: A Personalized Approach
At Restore Pharmacy in Tampa, we understand that no two women experience menopause the same way. That’s why we offer bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) that can be fully customized to each patient’s unique needs. Our goal is simple: to help women feel like themselves again, reclaim their energy, and restore balance in their daily lives.
What Are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are derived from natural sources and are chemically identical to the hormones your body produces. This makes them more easily recognized and processed by your body compared to synthetic hormones. With compounding, we can tailor dosages and delivery methods—such as creams, capsules, or troches—specifically for each woman.
Why Customization Matters
Every woman’s hormone profile is unique. Symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, low energy, vaginal dryness, and sleep disturbances can vary greatly. At Restore Pharmacy, we work with providers to create personalized BHRT regimens that target your exact hormone deficiencies, helping you achieve the best results.
Revisiting the Old Studies on Hormone Therapy
Many women hesitate to explore hormone replacement because of concerns stemming from studies published decades ago. However, those studies had significant flaws:
They often relied on synthetic hormones, not bioidentical ones.
Participants were frequently older women who had already passed the early menopause window, skewing the data.
Subsequent research has shown that bioidentical hormones are safer and more effective when started at the right time and customized to the patient.
Today’s BHRT is supported by a much stronger body of evidence and real-world results.
Patient Experiences
Nothing speaks louder than the voices of women who have experienced BHRT firsthand:
“I feel like myself again.”
“My friends have told me I’m so much happier.”
“My husband loves our new sex life, and so do I.”
“For the first time in years, I’m sleeping through the night.”
These testimonials reflect the profound improvements BHRT can bring to daily life, relationships, and overall wellness.

Patient-Friendly FAQ About BHRT
Is BHRT safe?
Yes, when properly prescribed and monitored, BHRT is considered safe. It uses hormones that are identical to the body’s own, which can reduce risks compared to synthetic versions.
How long before I feel results?
Most women begin noticing improvements in symptoms like sleep, mood, and energy within a few weeks. Full benefits may take 2–3 months as hormone levels stabilize.
What symptoms can BHRT help with?
BHRT can ease hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, brain fog, low libido, and vaginal dryness—common struggles during menopause.
Is BHRT only for women in menopause?
Not always. Women in perimenopause (the transition before menopause) may also benefit from BHRT if they experience bothersome symptoms.
How is BHRT different from traditional HRT?
Traditional HRT often uses synthetic hormones in fixed doses. BHRT uses hormones identical to your body’s and can be compounded into personalized doses and delivery methods.
Do I need lab work before starting BHRT?
Yes. Lab testing helps identify your hormone levels so your provider and pharmacist can customize the right plan for you.
