BHRT, Women's Health

This introductory course in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is tailored for medical professionals seeking to integrate hormone therapy into their clinical practice. It offers a comprehensive overview of the roles and benefits of key hormones—estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and vitamin D—and clearly explains the differences between BHRT and conventional HRT.

You’ll learn to understand the menstrual cycle and steroid hormone pathway, interpret hormone profiles, and diagnose and treat common female conditions such as PMS, perimenopause, and menopause. Using real-life case studies, we’ll walk through the diagnosis and treatment of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), perimenopause, and menopause—demonstrating how to build safe and effective treatment plans using bioidentical oestrogen and progesterone. You’ll also learn how to incorporate BHRT into your existing clinical framework, and how to select and personalise compounded formulations based on patient needs, preferences, and available routes of administration.
