Every living being has an endocrine system that consists of a number of glands: the hypothalamus, pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, adrenals, pancreas and gonads. Endocrine means to secrete within.

Hormones in animals are often transported in the blood. Cells respond to a hormone when they express a specific receptor for that hormone. The hormone binds to the receptor protein, resulting in the activation of a signal transduction mechanism that ultimately leads to cell type-specific responses. Endocrine hormone molecules are secreted (released) directly into the bloodstream, while exocrine hormones (or ectohormones) are secreted directly into a duct, and from the duct they either flow into the bloodstream or they flow from cell to cell by diffusion in a process known as paracrine signalling.

The body's production of hormones decreases as human beings begin to age. There are many different options available for supplementing the decreasing levels of hormones in the body. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is one of the safer options available these days.

Bioidentical HRT uses natural botanicals, tailored specifically to your body, to replace hormone levels that become depleted as we get older. This is a long term treatment that offers gradual results, bioidentical hormone therapy has many benefits for older patients hormone replacement injections and creams. Bioidentical HRT is not just for women. Men, too, can benefit from bringing the testosterone and estrogen in their body to more youthful levels. Both sexes will feel rejuvenation, with increased energy, more mental clarity and a more positive outlook on life.

Bioidentical hormone therapy is often called "natural hormone therapy" because bioidentical hormones act in the body just like the hormones we produce. Bioidentical hormones are made into a range of products, many of which are FDA-approved and available with a prescription at your local drugstore (see chart, "FDA-approved hormones for menopausal symptoms").

Because the hormones that are naturally produced in humans are different than those produced in animals, your body often views these animal hormones as foreign, which can create an immune response and side effects.

Many doctors believe that women and men who opt for bioidentical HRT instead of undergoing traditional (synthetic) hormone replacement therapy (HRT) will experience less adverse reactions. The side effects of bioidentical HRT are usually mild if present at all.
