Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) in Pasadena
What is BHRT?
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy works by replenishing your body’s hormones using plant-derived compounds that exactly match the ones your system naturally produces. Hormones are vital for maintaining balance across metabolism, energy levels, mood, and sleep. When these levels are disrupted because of aging, prolonged stress, or medical issues, symptoms such as fatigue, mental cloudiness, unexpected weight shifts, or sleep difficulties can arise.
Unlike synthetic hormones or traditional treatments, BHRT is designed to integrate seamlessly with your body, supporting natural, effective results. If you have been dealing with fatigue, irritability, or unexplained changes in weight, BHRT provides a tailored, science-backed solution specifically designed for your unique hormonal needs.
How Does BHRT Work?
BHRT works by replenishing the hormones your body may be deficient in, helping to restore balance down to the cellular level. These bioidentical hormones are sourced from plants such as yams and soy and are chemically identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. Because your cells recognize them as familiar, they are absorbed more effectively and generally cause fewer side effects than synthetic hormone treatments.
Following comprehensive lab testing to determine your hormone levels, a personalized plan is created to meet your specific needs. BHRT can be delivered through multiple methods, including creams, transdermal patches, injections, or subcutaneous pellets, providing a steady and controlled release of hormones to support energy, balance, and overall well-being throughout the day.

What To Expect During Your Parfaire Health Appointment
Your first appointment with Dr. Moses begins with an in-depth consultation to explore your symptoms, medical history, and wellness objectives. In addition to reviewing your experiences, comprehensive testing is performed, including an advanced hormone panel and precision diagnostics. Unlike routine blood tests, this approach provides detailed insights into how your hormones are functioning, as well as your gut health, inflammation levels, metabolism, and other key systems. This thorough evaluation enables Dr. Moses to identify the root causes of your symptoms instead of merely addressing surface-level issues.
Once all test results are available, Dr. Moses will review them with you and recommend the most suitable method of hormone delivery based on your lifestyle and individual preferences. BHRT may be administered through creams, gels, patches, pills, or subcutaneous pellets that provide a steady, controlled release of hormones. Your progress is closely monitored throughout treatment with follow-up testing and personalized assessments, allowing adjustments as needed to ensure optimal hormone balance and support your overall health and vitality.
