Bioidentical hormones in Aspen Hill: what it means
"Bioidentical" describes a hormone whose chemical structure matches one the body makes. Estradiol, the main estrogen the ovaries make before menopause, and micronized progesterone both fit that description. Neither has to be compounded: FDA-approved estradiol comes as pills, patches, gels, sprays, vaginal creams and rings, and progesterone as capsules.
Aspen Hill (population 53,752) has no OB-GYN office of its own in the NPI registry.
Counting the area around it, 348 OB-GYNs practice in Aspen Hill or within 10 miles and 1,352 within 25 miles: 26.8 for every 100,000 of the 5,042,724 people who live within 25 miles, a dense supply. None of this replaces your own OB-GYN or a menopause doctor you trust; VevaMD adds an online route, with a physician licensed in Maryland reviewing your answers from home in Aspen Hill.
Compounded hormones are a different thing: a pharmacy prepares them for one patient, as a cream, a capsule or a pellet. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, so the FDA cannot assure their safety, effectiveness or dose. The FDA says it has no evidence that compounded "bioidentical hormones" are safe and effective, or more effective than FDA-approved hormone therapy. The National Academies, reviewing them for the FDA in 2020, called their wide use a public health concern.
Through VevaMD, a physician licensed in Maryland decides whether hormone therapy fits you and, if so, the form: an estradiol pill, patch, cream or vaginal cream, with progesterone if you have a uterus. Pellets are not part of it. Since the pharmacy that fills these prescriptions also compounds, ask whether yours is an FDA-approved product or compounded. Two options are compounded for certain: testosterone cream for women and Bi-Est are not FDA-approved.
BHRT pellet clinics work differently: they place a hormone pellet under the skin in the office, and compounded pellets are not FDA-approved. The Endocrine Society points to a study that found hormone levels well above the expected range in women using them. ACOG's guidance is to prefer FDA-approved menopause hormone therapy to compounded hormones.
