We have the natural alternative<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

With bioidentical hormones, Dr. Andreas Bernhardt offers a natural and gentle alternative to conventional medication. These hormones individually compensate for hormonal deficiencies and can reduce or avoid the need for symptomatic medication. The aim is to regulate symptoms at an early stage and strengthen the body's own regulation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Medication often combats symptoms<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFrom a certain age, many women and men often receive medication for symptoms such as sleep disorders, pain or low mood, which primarily treat the symptoms and not the causes. These include synthetic sleeping pills, painkillers and psychotropic drugs. These drugs can have significant long-term side effects and lead to addiction.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Use:<\/strong> Doctors and therapists use them to treat chronic and acute pain, such as joint or muscle pain. Examples include ibuprofen, paracetamol or even opioids.<\/p>

Risks:<\/strong> Long-term use carries risks such as gastrointestinal complaints, liver damage, kidney damage and the potential for dependence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Instead, we use bioidentical hormones as a gentle alternative. They counteract the cause of many pains by regulating inflammation and promoting hormonal balance - often reducing the amount of synthetic medication required.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
