About Hormone Therapy
Bioidentical hormone therapy and conventional Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) are two approaches to hormone treatment, each with distinct characteristics and benefits.
​
Choosing Between bioidentical hormone therapy and conventional HRT depends on a patient’s unique health profile, goals, and the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider. Some patients may prefer bioidentical hormone therapy for its natural sourcing and customisation, while others may opt for standard HRT for its tested and regulated consistency. Both options are designed to alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance, with a focus on restoring overall well-being.
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Bioidentical hormone therapy uses hormones that are molecularly identical to those produced by the human body, often derived from plant sources. These hormones are compounded to according to the individual’s specific hormone levels and requirements, offering a highly personalised approach. The tailored nature of bioidentical hormone therapy allows for adjustments in dosage and hormone combinations based on ongoing assessments, which some patients prefer for its individualised treatment focus.
Conventional Synthetic HRT
Conventional synthetic HRT consists of TGA-approved hormone products that have undergone extensive testing for safety and efficacy. These hormones are available in standardised doses and formulations, typically combining synthetic or animal-derived hormones. Synthetic HRT has a well-established profile, with fixed-dose products that have been rigorously tested in clinical trials.
Initial Consultation
Your initial consultation with Dr. Danielle Richards at Peregian Springs Doctors includes an in-depth assessment of your symptoms, health history, and overall wellness goals.
Blood tests and any other necessary evaluations will be ordered to gather a complete picture of your hormonal health. This assessment appointment is a critical step in crafting a personalised HRT plan.
Follow-up Consultations
During your second appointment, Dr. Richards will discuss your test results and provide insights into your hormonal balance. Based on these findings, she will discuss a customized HRT and wellness plan to help you achieve optimal well-being.
A prescription for your tailored treatment will then be prepared, with all compounding performed by our trusted partners at Livelife Pharmacy in Peregian Springs for quality and precision.

For convenience, the second appointment’s fees are included in the cost of your initial consultation, giving you peace of mind and seamless care as you start your wellness journey.
