Harmonizing Your Health with Hormone Balance
Hormones are the body’s chemical messengers, playing a pivotal role in regulating nearly every physiological process. When these hormones are out of balance, it can lead to a wide array of health issues, affecting everything from mood to metabolism. Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHT) offers a natural solution to these imbalances, providing a path back to wellness that aligns with your body’s innate rhythms.
Bioidentical hormones are derived from plant estrogens that are chemically identical to those the human body produces. This similarity allows them to be more effectively used by the body, with fewer side effects compared to synthetic hormones. At Alight Wellness, our approach to BHT is guided by a deep understanding of your unique health profile. Through comprehensive lab testing, we assess your hormone levels to tailor a therapy that addresses your specific imbalances.
Our goal with Bioidentical Hormone Therapy is not just symptom relief but restoring your body’s natural hormone balance to support overall health and well-being. Benefits of BHT can include improved mood, increased energy levels, weight management, better sleep, enhanced libido, and more. By addressing hormone imbalances at their source, BHT can also help mitigate risks associated with hormone-related conditions.
The journey to hormonal harmony begins with a personalized assessment, considering your health history, symptoms, and lifestyle. This holistic view ensures that our BHT recommendations are not only effective but also safe, supporting your health without compromising your body’s natural processes. As your therapy progresses, we continuously monitor how you are feeling and adjust your treatment as needed, ensuring optimal outcomes.
Embracing Bioidentical Hormone Therapy at Alight Wellness means choosing a path of natural healing. It’s about working with your body, not against it, to rediscover balance and health. If you’re experiencing symptoms of hormone imbalance or seeking a more natural approach to hormone therapy, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
What exactly are bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are derived from plant sources and are chemically identical to those produced by the human body. This means they mimic the function of your natural hormones, offering a more natural approach to hormone therapy with potentially fewer side effects.
How does Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHT) differ from traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?
The main difference between BHT and traditional HRT lies in the hormone composition. BHT uses hormones that are identical to those your body produces naturally, whereas traditional HRT often uses synthetic hormones or those derived from animals, which may not match as closely with your body’s hormones and could lead to different side effects or outcomes.
What conditions can BHT help with?
BHT can be beneficial for a range of conditions associated with hormonal imbalances, including menopause symptoms (like hot flashes and mood swings), andropause (the male equivalent of menopause), thyroid disorders, adrenal fatigue, and other hormone-related conditions.
What is the process for starting BHT?
The process begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including a detailed discussion of your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle, followed by specific lab tests to assess your hormone levels. Based on these results, a personalized BHT plan is developed to address your unique needs, which is then monitored and adjusted as necessary.
Are there any side effects associated with BHT?
As with any therapy, there can be side effects, but because bioidentical hormones are identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body, the risk is often lower compared to synthetic hormones. Possible side effects depend on the individual and the specific hormones used. We closely monitor your therapy to minimize risks and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
