Scientists create bio natural hormones in the laboratory. They come from plant estrogens, and they are identical to the estrogen that your body creates. This means that the molecular structure of these hormones is identical to the hormones that are made in your own body.
To make bio natural hormones, a scientist takes soy and yams for the purpose of extracting the plant’s chemicals and creating a form of estrogen that is known as “estradiol.” Estradiol is the type of estrogen that decreases during menopause.
The bio natural hormones that scientists create in the laboratory act exactly like the estrogen inside your body. The fortunate thing is that your body doesn’t know the difference between bio natural hormones made in a laboratory and those that were made within your body. Therefore, there isn’t any difference between bio natural hormone therapy and natural hormones from our own bodies.
Estrogen Release during Puberty and Beyond
Between the ages of eight and 14, the pituitary gland begins to release follicle-stimulating hormone or FSH. When this happens, the ovaries begin to release estrogen. This event begins the process of puberty when several things start to occur. For example, the girl’s body begins to appear more womanly, and her vaginal lining becomes thicker.
The hypothalamus regulates the presence of estrogen in your body. When it receives a signal that estrogen is running low in your bloodstream, it sends out the gonadotropin-releasing hormone or Gn-RH. One of the gonadotropins is the follicle-stimulating hormone or FSH. When the hypothalamus gets the signal that estrogen is needed, it releases the FSH so that it can stimulate the ovaries to produce more estrogen.
Between the ages of 40 and 55, estrogen levels begin to drop. This starts a phase that the medical community calls “perimenopause.”
Perimenopause
The word “perimenopause” means “around menopause,” and it is the time that your body adjusts itself to enter into the menopausal phase. This is when a woman’s reproductive years are beginning to come to an end. A sign that menopause is in your near future and that you are in perimenopause is when you begin to have irregular periods. This may begin in your 40s, but some women may even experience these changes at around age 35.
Sometimes, women experience the symptoms of menopause at this time. For example, there may be an occasional hot flash or vaginal dryness. If you experience 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period, you will receive a diagnosis of menopause.
Symptoms of Perimenopause
The symptoms of perimenopause include the following:
- Bone loss
- Lack of sexual desire
- Irregular ovulation
- Vaginal dryness
- Mood swings
- Hot flashes
- Sleep difficulties
- Irregular periods
Menopause
This is the time that begins 12 months after your last period. Your ovaries are not producing as much estrogen and progesterone as they had in the past, so your bones become weaker. You may gain weight more easily than you did in the past because your fat cells are also changing at this time.
Symptoms of Menopause
The symptoms of menopause include the following:
- Less fullness in the breasts
- Hair thinning
- Dry skin
- Mood swings
- Night sweats
- Difficulties sleeping
- Chills
- Hot flashes
- Dryness in the vaginal area
Symptoms of Low Estrogen
Women may experience several symptoms of low estrogen, including the following:
- Fatigue
- Difficulties with concentrating
- Depression
- Headaches or the worsening of pre-existing migraines
- Tenderness in the breasts
- Hot flashes
- Mood swings
- Absent menstrual periods
- With urethral thinning, an increase in urinary tract infections
- With decreased lubrication, pain during sex
