虽然我们很少去想它们, the glands of the endocrine system and the hormones they release influence almost every cell, 器官, 以及我们身体的功能. 事实上, research over the years points to declining hormone levels as a key factor in the aging process, 这在很大程度上导致了能量和肌肉力量的下降, 失去性欲, 抑郁症, 情绪波动, 无法应付, 以及经前综合症和更年期症状的增加. 当男性和女性经历这些荷尔蒙变化时, hormone replacement therapy (荷尔蒙替代疗法) is frequently necessary and beneficial for supporting good health as we age.

五十多年前，荷尔蒙替代疗法成为主流, 重点主要是补充妇女的荷尔蒙. Research and development of synthetic and equine hormones since the 1940’s has provided the basis for most references on 荷尔蒙替代疗法. 基于这项研究, the medical community has approached conventional 荷尔蒙替代疗法 by relying on a variety of “synthetic” estrogens and progestins products that come only in one-size-fits-all doses. 虽然这种疗法对一些女性有效, 许多人发现它根本没有效果, 或者更糟, 发现它们会引起一系列令人不快的副作用吗. Many women who start on 荷尔蒙替代疗法 ended up going off it a few months or a few years later because of the side effects. 事后看来，这应该不足为奇, since the chemical structures of these medications are not identical but only similar to what the body naturally produces. 此外, the one-size-fits-all approach does not accurately address every woman’s unique hormonal profile and needs.

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (B荷尔蒙替代疗法) attempts to restore a “bio-identical” hormone balance through the use of plant-derived hormone precursors that are modified to become structurally identical to those found in human beings. 通过重建“自然”荷尔蒙平衡, B荷尔蒙替代疗法 helps alleviate the symptoms caused when the body’s hormone production decreases with age. It also confers the many protective benefits provided by naturally occurring hormones. Because bio-identical hormones are molecularly identical to those the patient naturally produces, many women experience fewer uncomfortable side effects with B荷尔蒙替代疗法 as compared to synthetic hormone replacement.

When discussing hormone replacement therapy most people think it is reserved solely for women. However, men also experience hormonal and physiological change with age just like women. 男人更年期, 也被称为男性更年期, 是否比女性经历的更渐进, 但它同样是真实的. Over the past 5 to 10 years the practice of 荷尔蒙替代疗法 has become as routine for men as for women. Maintaining adequate levels of 睾酮 in the body is critical to many systems to include muscle and bone health, 心血管健康, 耐力, 性健康和精神功能.
