Hormone levels are constantly fluctuating – a normal process that occurs at every stage of life. The body responds to these changes with physical manifestations that can affect the way a person feels on a daily basis. When hormone levels are imbalanced, it is normal to feel uncomfortable, sluggish, and just not quite yourself.

If you’re searching for a natural alternative to synthetic hormonal replacement,
you may benefit from Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy.
Hormone optimization, or bioidentical hormone therapy, is the process of restoring the hormonal balance in both women and men after they have reached menopause and andropause, respectively. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, also known as BHRT, is a method of replacing or supplementing hormones with naturally-derived hormones like estrogens, progesterone, and androgens that are biologically identical to those produced by a woman’s ovaries (or by a man’s testicles).
BHRT is not a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, but rather a personalized hormone balancing therapy that can restore the energy and vigor for life you once enjoyed. There are three major sex hormones: estradiol and progesterone in women, and testosterone in men. Rose Wellness has earned the reputation as one of the most popular providers of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy in Northern Virginia.
The primary and most notable benefit of bio-identical hormone therapy is that it can restore optimal hormone balance in the body and help you regain your youthfulness and vitality. BHRT can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual. Other benefits include:
