Bioidentical hormone therapy: the revolution in women's hormonal health in menopause

Medyca: the first organisation in Italy to offer free meetings to raise awareness and provide information about bioidentical hormone therapy for the treatment of menopause

Medyca is the first clinic in Italy to offer an opportunity to inform people free of charge, to raise women's awareness of the benefits of therapy with bioidentical hormones (BHRT) and to give clear, scientific information.

In menopause, the female body undergoes significant changes linked to endocrine senescence, a natural phenomenon that involves a reduction in the activity of the endocrine glands. This process can lead to symptoms such as hot flushes, insomnia, joint pain, irritability and a general decline in physical and mental wellbeing, as well as the absence of protection for blood vessels, bones, nerve structures, skin and much more.

However, an innovative solution is spreading internationally: therapy with bioidentical hormones (BHRT), which, being of natural derivation (and not synthetic), are recognised as exactly the same in every respect as those produced by the female body before menopause.

This new approach, recognised for its effectiveness and absence of side effects, represents a modern alternative for protecting bone health, reducing cardiovascular risks, protecting against the onset of breast cancer and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, while at the same time improving quality of life in menopause.

Dr Cristina Lenzi – a doctor with over 20 years of experience – will hold free meetings both online and at her Medyca practice (Via di Fontebranda 83, Siena), by appointment. Dr Lenzi, a specialist in internal medicine, is an expert in bioidentical hormones, with Level I and Level II Master's degrees obtained at the clinic of Dr Marion Gluck in London, a pioneer of the therapy.

During the appointments, interested women will be able to:

• Learn about the nature of bioidentical hormone therapy;
• Understand how this therapy works to relieve the symptoms of menopause and protect health;
• Get answers to their questions and personalised clarifications;

The meetings are a unique opportunity to understand the possibilities offered by anti-ageing BHRT, which involves a completely personalised, targeted pathway designed for each woman.

Medyca supports women, and believes in the future and in the importance of taking care of one's own body and mind. The clinic confirms that Siena's medical sector is at the forefront, as recently reaffirmed by Siena's climb in the Sole24Ore ranking, where Siena placed fifth in Italy for women's wellbeing, and second in Italy for the presence of specialist doctors.
