Bioidentical hormones in Mount Vernon: what it means
If you are one of the 11,712 women aged 45 to 64 in Mount Vernon and have searched for "bioidentical" hormones: the word means a hormone whose structure matches one the body makes. Estradiol, the main estrogen the ovaries make before menopause, and micronized progesterone both fit that description. Both come in FDA-approved prescription forms, from estradiol pills, patches, gels and vaginal forms to progesterone capsules.
Compounded hormones are a different thing: a pharmacy prepares them for one patient, as a cream, a capsule or a pellet. None of these is FDA-approved, and the FDA has not reviewed them for safety, effectiveness or quality before sale. The FDA says it has no evidence that compounded "bioidentical hormones" are safe and effective, or more effective than FDA-approved hormone therapy. When the National Academies reviewed them in 2020, the evidence was mostly low quality, such as anecdotes and patient reports.
15 OB-GYNs in the federal NPI registry give a primary practice address in Mount Vernon: 20.7 per 100,000 residents, above the US rate of 17.8 and below New York's 22.5, and more per resident than 51% of the 924 cities VevaMD covers. With about 11,712 women aged 45 to 64 living in Mount Vernon, that is about 780 for each OB-GYN in the city, before counting any younger patients.
Within 25 miles of Mount Vernon there are 3,572 OB-GYNs for 13,881,455 residents (25.7 per 100,000), well above the national rate; 653 are in the city or within 10 miles. VevaMD is an online option alongside them: a physician licensed in New York reviews your intake from Mount Vernon without an office visit, and an OB-GYN you already see stays your doctor.
For women in Mount Vernon, a physician licensed in New York can prescribe estradiol (pill, patch, cream or vaginal) and progesterone when they fit your history. VevaMD does not offer pellets. Because the dispensing pharmacy also compounds, you can ask whether your estradiol or progesterone is an FDA-approved product. Testosterone cream for women and Bi-Est are compounded and 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 cites blood levels well above the expected range in women using compounded pellets. ACOG's guidance is to prefer FDA-approved menopause hormone therapy to compounded hormones.
