Hormones are tiny chemical messengers continuously secreted into the bloodstream by endocrine glands to regulate the activities of vital organs. The word "hormone," is derived from a Greek word meaning "to stimulate."

Hormones stimulate a multitude of life-giving processes throughout the body, which maintain health, harmony, growth, healing, and repair.

At The Cosmetique, we use bioidentical hormones, which are identical to human hormones, eliminating the unwanted side effects of synthetic hormones.

Bioidentical hormones are designed to have the same molecular structure as the hormones made by your own body. Conversely, synthetic hormones like Premarin and Provera are intentionally different. A pharmaceutical company can't patent a bioidentical structure, so they invent synthetic hormones that can be patented.

The average individual's testosterone, DHEA, and growth hormone levels decrease steadily on an average of 30% between the ages of 30 to 50, and the average female's estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone levels decrease even more precipitously at menopause.

By the age of 35, both males and females have the melatonin level of an 80-year-old and "Low Thyroid - LowT3 Syndrome" is frequently evident as well. These hormones critically affect the stamina, strength, energy, libido, lean muscle mass, and lower body fat.

The great benefit of bioidentical hormones is that because they are natural, your body can metabolize them as it was designed to do with little or no side effects. Many synthetic hormones are quite powerful and often produce difficult side effects.

At any given time, more than 40 million American women are experiencing some stage of menopause. Classic symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, night sweats, depression, anxiety, irritability, sleep disturbances, mood swings, headaches, memory problems, decreased libido, vaginal dryness and loss of bladder control.

Symptoms of menopause may begin to occur five to seven years before menopause, when the production of estrogen and progesterone hormones decreases. Testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) are additional hormones that decline during menopause. Replacement of estrogen and progesterone is termed hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
