Bioidentical Hormones: Safer For Hot Flashes Than HRT? | June, 2010

An article recently published by U.S. News asked the million dollar question: Are bioidentical hormones safer than synthetic HRT drugs, like Premarin and Prempro. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are customized by quality compounding pharmacies, to be molecularly identical to the hormones that the body produces naturally. Many women are turning to bioidentical hormone therapy as a more effective means of mitigating their symptoms of menopause - and in recent years, plenty of men are getting in on the benefits too.

The article cites a 2009 study that was published in the journal Breast Cancer Research Treatment, which involved over 80,000 post-menopausal women. The study concluded that women who used synthetic hormones were 70 percent more likely to develop breast cancer in their lifetime, than women who used bioidentical hormones or did not use hormones at all.
