About this stack
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for women experiencing perimenopause or menopause. We prescribe transdermal estradiol (patch or gel), micronized progesterone, and low-dose testosterone where indicated. The 2002 WHI study that scared a generation off HRT used synthetic progestins and conjugated equine estrogens — not the body-identical hormones we prescribe.
The science
Modern guidelines from the Menopause Society, British Menopause Society, and NICE support bioidentical HRT as safe and effective for most women under 60 or within 10 years of menopause onset. Transdermal estradiol avoids first-pass hepatic metabolism, reducing thrombotic risk vs oral estrogen. Micronized progesterone has a better breast safety profile than synthetic progestins.
Why HRT doesn't require labs upfront
You may have heard that hormone replacement therapy requires extensive blood work before starting. The current best practice from the Menopause Society (formerly NAMS) and the British Menopause Society says otherwise: HRT should be initiated based on symptoms, not lab values.
Estrogen levels fluctuate dramatically hour-to-hour during perimenopause. A single estradiol reading can be normal at 9am and low at 2pm. Waiting for a lab confirmation before prescribing means waiting for a measurement that doesn't accurately represent your hormonal state. Your symptoms — hot flashes, sleep disruption, mood changes, brain fog — are a more reliable signal than any single blood draw.
This is why our HRT intake is built around your symptom profile and medical history, not a lab panel. Your physician uses the Menopause Rating Scale and clinical history to determine the right starting protocol. You'll have a 30-day symptom check-in and a 90-day review to adjust dosing based on your response.
When labs are ordered: If your physician wants to rule out other causes (thyroid, adrenal), or if you're a candidate for testosterone supplementation, they may request specific labs as part of your initial review. This is guided by clinical judgment, not a blanket requirement.
Common questions
Is bioidentical HRT safer than synthetic HRT?
The evidence supports bioidentical hormones — transdermal estradiol and micronized progesterone — as having a better safety profile than the synthetic versions studied in the 2002 WHI trial.
Do I need to be in menopause to start?
No. Many women start during perimenopause to manage symptoms. Evidence is strongest for starting within 10 years of menopause onset.
What about cancer risk?
Current evidence shows no increased risk with estrogen-only HRT, and minimal increase with combined therapy in the first 5 years. Your physician reviews your personal and family history.

The Longevity Agent offers Women's HRT (transdermal estradiol, micronized progesterone, testosterone cream if indicated) at $79/month. Winona charges $89, Alloy $99, Evernow $99, Midi $179+. Price includes physician evaluation.
