Bioidentical hormones in Aberdeen: what it means

If you are one of the 3,228 women aged 45 to 64 in Aberdeen and have searched for "bioidentical" hormones: the word means a hormone whose structure matches one the body makes. Two hormones used in menopause care fit it exactly, estradiol and micronized progesterone. FDA-approved versions of both are sold by prescription at retail pharmacies.

"BHRT" often means compounded hormones, a cream, a blend such as Bi-Est or a pellet that a pharmacy mixes for one prescription. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, so the FDA cannot assure their safety, effectiveness or dose. The FDA also says it has no evidence that they are safe and effective, or more effective than approved hormone therapy. The National Academies, reviewing them for the FDA in 2020, called their wide use a public health concern.

7 OB-GYNs in the federal NPI registry give a primary practice address in Aberdeen: 24.7 per 100,000 residents, above the US rate of 17.8 and above South Dakota's 13.6, and more per resident than 61% of the 924 cities VevaMD covers. Set against the city's 3,228 women aged 45 to 64, that is one OB-GYN for roughly every 460.

Nearly all of the area's OB-GYNs are in Aberdeen itself: 7 practice within 25 miles, 17.4 per 100,000 of the 40,226 residents of that radius. Whether or not you have an OB-GYN, you can ask a physician licensed in South Dakota about menopause hormone therapy online from Aberdeen, with no waiting room.

Through VevaMD, a physician licensed in South Dakota 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. There are no pellets. Since the pharmacy that fills these prescriptions also compounds, ask whether yours is an FDA-approved product or compounded. Testosterone cream for women and Bi-Est are compounded and not FDA-approved.

A pellet clinic is a different model: it implants a hormone pellet under the skin during a visit, and compounded pellets are not FDA-approved. The Endocrine Society cites blood levels well above the expected range in women using compounded pellets. ACOG recommends FDA-approved menopause hormone therapy over compounded hormones.

Can I get bioidentical hormones (BHRT) online in Aberdeen, SD?

Online, if it fits your history: estradiol and progesterone are bioidentical, and a physician licensed in South Dakota can prescribe them for women in Aberdeen. Ask your physician whether yours is an FDA-approved product or compounded.

What is the difference between this and BHRT pellets?

A pellet clinic implants a hormone pellet under the skin during an office visit; compounded pellets are not FDA-approved. VevaMD's physicians prescribe pills, patches, creams or vaginal forms that ship to your door in Aberdeen, and do not use pellets. Some of those forms are compounded too, so ask which yours is.
