Bioidentical hormones in Richland: what it means

Behind the label "bioidentical hormone replacement therapy" is a plain idea: a hormone whose structure matches the body's own. 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.

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. In the FDA's words, it has no evidence that compounded "bioidentical hormones" are safe and effective. When the National Academies reviewed them in 2020, the evidence was mostly low quality, such as anecdotes and patient reports.

Through VevaMD, a physician licensed in Washington 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. Because the dispensing pharmacy also compounds, you can ask whether your estradiol or progesterone is an FDA-approved product. Two options are compounded for certain: testosterone cream for women and Bi-Est are not FDA-approved.

For its size, Richland is well supplied with OB-GYNs: the NPI registry lists 17, or 27.5 per 100,000 residents, against 17.8 for the US and above Washington's 17.0. With about 7,019 women aged 45 to 64 living in Richland, that is about 410 for each OB-GYN in the city, before counting any younger patients.

Supply stays thin beyond the city line: 26 OB-GYNs within 10 miles and 42 within 25, only 12.8 per 100,000 of the 328,172 people who live in that radius, under the US 17.8. None of this replaces your own OB-GYN or a menopause doctor you trust; VevaMD adds an online route, with a physician licensed in Washington reviewing your answers from home in Richland.

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 advises FDA-approved hormone therapy over compounded preparations.

Is bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) available in Richland?

Online, if it fits your history: estradiol and progesterone are bioidentical, and a physician licensed in Washington can prescribe them for women in Richland. Compounded "BHRT" blends are not FDA-approved; ask whether your prescription 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. Through VevaMD there is no procedure: a pill, patch, cream or vaginal form ships to Richland if your physician prescribes it. Some forms VevaMD's physicians prescribe are compounded as well; ask which yours is.
