BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES & ANTI AGING SOLUTIONS ON MAUI
Are you looking for anti-aging solutions on Maui that involve using bio-identical hormones??
Almost everything that happens inside our bodies is because of hormones. These chemicals control our growth, metabolism, emotions, sleep, and sexual function. They work as messengers, sending out signals to every part of our body to control various processes. They also affect how our bodies age. But unfortunately, as we get older, our bodies also produce fewer hormones. As a result, many have used bio-identical hormones as an anti-aging treatment.
What are bio-identical hormones?
Bio-identical hormones are artificial hormones obtained from plants. Scientists modified them to have the same chemical structure as hormones made by the body. And so, bio-identical hormones function as if our body created them.
So who can use bio-identical hormones? Well, some people have a hormonal imbalance. Meaning their bodies produce not enough or too much of certain hormones. And unfortunately, even tiny changes can have serious effects on the body. This is where bio-identical hormones can help.
For instance, doctors who deal with hormone replacement therapy can work with bio-identical hormones. Usually, women undergoing menopause or perimenopause take this therapy because it helps with:
- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Sleeping problems
- Fatigue
- Mood swings
- Memory loss or confusion, etc.
Are bio-identical hormones safe?
Maybe you’ve seen or heard warnings against traditional hormone therapy. Many doctors are against them because they use synthetic hormones. Some even say that long-term use increases the risk of breast cancer, stroke, and heart disease. However, bio-identical hormones mimic the ones our bodies produce. They are also easier to absorb, just like natural hormones. As a result, bio-identical hormones are a safer alternative to synthetic ones. In fact, scientists specifically designed them in response to those warnings.
And despite being made in the lab, bio-identical hormones have the exact same structure as the ones our bodies produce naturally. As a result, our body will not be able to distinguish between natural from bioidentical hormones.
Benefits of bio-identical hormones
Women who go through menopause are not the only ones who can use bio-identical hormones. Both men and women face hormone-related symptoms of aging. So hormone replacement therapy using bio-identical hormones is appropriate for both.

- Healthier skin
- Improved metabolism

- More energy
- Can sleep better at night
- Fewer hot flashes and night sweats
- Decreased symptoms of anxiety and depression
