Bioidentical hormone are derived from plants such as soy and Mexican wild yam which contain an active ingredient called Disogenin. Disogenin is similar in structure to cholesterol. By using different extraction processes, disogenin can be converted to synthesize bioidentical hormones such as Progesterone, Pregnenolone, Estradiol, Estriol, Testosterone,Thyroxine, DHEA, Melatonin etc.
The chemical structure of BHRT is biologically identical to human hormones. Therefore, these molecules are better able to mimic natural biological processes. Taking bioidentical hormones, which are very similar in structure to what the body produces, is the best way to replace hormones safely.

Cortisol is type of hormone called a corticosteroid hormone and is produced by the adrenal glands. it’s sometimes called the stress hormone since people produce greater levels of it when under significant stress, especially during a ‘fight and flight’ reaction. it is produced at varying levels throughout the day with the peak being in the morning and it decreases as the day progresses.
Benefits of Cortisol:
• Reduces inflammation
• Helps in increasing short term memory
• Helps in removing toxins from the body
• Increases regulation of the immune system and liver function

DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is a steroid hormone. DHEA is produced by the adrenal glands (located just above the kidneys) as well as by the brain and the skin and is the most abundant naturally occurring hormone in the human body. In your lifetime you will secrete more DHEA than any other hormone.
Your DHEA level increases until around the age of 15. It then begins to drop off sharply so that at 65 you’re producing only 10-20% of the DHEA that you produced at 20.
Recent development for female infertility, used primarily in women with poor ovarian reserve with remarkable results (increase in egg product & quality). Used in treatment of Autoimmune conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, Thyroid disorders
Benefits of DHEA:
• Enhances the immune system
• Controlling Alzheimer’s, lupus, AIDS and chronic fatigue syndrome
• Reduces the incidence of cancer, heart

• Improves liver functioning
• Inhibits tumors
• Lowers cholesterol, LDL & body fat
• Reduces mortality, especially in men
• Fights anxiety and depression
• Increases libido in women
• Relieves joint pain
• Enhances memory
7-Keto DHEA is a substance known to ameliorate the effects of aging on many body functions. 7 Keto is NOT DHEA. It is a netural metabolite of DHEA meaning that our bodies eventually convert DHEA into 7 Keto DHEA in the skin and kidneys.
Benefits of 7-Keto DHEA:
• Helpful in reducing body fat for safe weight loss

Estrogen is one of the most powerful hormones in the human body and many are surprised to find that both women and men need estrogen.
Estrogen is what makes a woman, a woman. It is estrogen that gives women their softness, curves, breasts and helps regulate a woman’s passage through menstruation, fertility and menopause.
Without estrogen men are infertile and may have a low libido. Men however, are generally not treated with estrogen supplementation as it can cause prostate problems.
Benefits of Estrogen:
• Relieves menopausal symptoms
• Develops sexual desire
• Gives feminine qualities
• Increased physical endurance
• Controls menstruation
• Improves memory
• Improves mood
• Fights fatigue
• Improves skin elasticity
• Reduces the risk of heart disease
• Retards osteoporosis
• Keeps joints healthy
• Prevents depression
• Supports immune function
Recommended for women who:
• Have fine wrinkles around the eyes and mouth
• Dry skin and hair loss
• Loss of libido
• Mood swings
• Hot flushes
• Loss of bone density
• Night sweats
• Vaginal dryness and itching
• Depression and painful periods
BHRT make the aging process and its stages more enjoyable and graceful. It’s the backbone to optimal health, longevity and better quality of life. BHRT is the safest way to replace depleted or declining hormones. The world of medicine is evolving, and it is very obvious that conservative treatment is disease-based; most treatment is geared to reducing symptoms but not solving the problem within.
Functional medicine aims to prevent disease and to treat the root cause of the disease. Studies have shown that proper replacement of Bioidentical Hormones along with healthy lifestyle choices and abiding by proper nutrition holds great promise in slowing the aging process. This approach also serves as an effective platform of treatment for chronic disease and age-related health issues.

This can only be determined after the patient goes through a detailed history taking, physical
examination and series of hormonal tests. After reviewing the results, hormones are then prescribed by a doctor who is trained and qualified in this field.
A compounding pharmacy then prepares the customized hormones based on the doctor’s prescription. This prescription is tailored especially for that individual patient; the aim of treatment is to replenish depleted hormone levels and to remove hormonal imbalances.
Every person is different; therefore, everyone needs specific doses customized to their unique requirements.

Different hormones are effective in different forms. Some may be taken orally
in capsule form; such as Thyroxine, Progesterone, Melatonin, Dhea and HCT.
Hormones such as Testosterone and especially Estrogen, work far better when applied topically/transdermally in a gel or cream form. This preparation is then directly absorbed into the blood stream and by-passes the liver. This avoids the production of harmful metabolites by the liver.
Do note that applying topical yam or soy types of health creams will not give the same results as bio identical hormones for the body is not equipped to convert the cream into hormones.

Bioidentical hormones are just like the hormones that our bodies synthesize. Therefore, they are easily recognized and utilized. Their effects on the body’s systems are more physiological and consistent with our normal biochemistry. At optimal dosing, there is less chance of unpleasant side effects that tend to occur with the usage of synthetic hormones.
Nevertheless, regular blood monitoring is advised every 2-3 months when just commencing treatment. Once dosing is optimized, levels ought to be monitored every 6 months once a stable dose is achieved. With regard to reproductive health, an annual mammogram and pap smear are recommended for the ladies. For men, PSA levels and a prostate examination is recommended every 6 months.

Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain. It helps regulate other hormone and maintains the body’s circadian rhythm. The circadian rhythm is an internal 24 hour clock that playsa role in our sleep- wake cycle. Melatonin also helps control the timing and release of female reproductive hormones. It helps determine when a woman starts to menstruate, the frequency and duration of menstrual cycle. Melatonin also has a strong anti oxidant and immune-modulator effect as it is particularly effective in dealing with free radicals.
Benefits of Melantonin:
• Increases quality of sleep
• Is a potent anti-oxidant and captures damaging free radicals
• Prevents jet lag
• Improves mood and relieves anxiety
• Improves sleep disorders
• Fights the growth of cancer cells

• Relaxes muscles and relieves tension
Recommended for people with:
• Premature aging / graying hair
• Sleep disturbance
• Poor dream quality
• Anxiety
• Hyper-irritability
• Hypersensitivity
• Depressed immune function
Functional Medicine is the science of creating health by treating the whole system and focusing on root causes, not just the symptoms. Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine physicians spend time with their patients; listening to their histories, mapping their personal timeline and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex chronic diseases.
After taking an extensive medical history and reviewing daily dietary choices, we run the appropriate medical tests to identify the root cause of chronic health issues. By changing the disease-centered focus of medical practice to this more holistic patient-centered approach, which is founded in medicine and biology, our physicians are able to support the healing process by viewing both health and illness as part of a cycle in which all components of the human biological system interact dynamically with the environment.

Calcium is a mineral that is necessary for life. In addition to building bones and keeping them healthy, calcium enables our blood to clot, our muscles to contract, and our heart to beat. About 99% of the calcium in our bodies are in our bones and teeth.
Calcium supplementation is recommended for optimal health. Calcium supplements are mostly available in carbonate form – these have higher percentages of elemental calcium, are cheaper but are more difficult to be absorbed by the stomach; hence they need to be taken with food. Some people experience constipation when supplementing with calcium carbonate.
At Aegle Pharma, we prepare calcium in the form of citrate, which is very absorbable – it can be conveniently taken on an empty stomach and does not cause constipation. A dose of less than 500mg is prepared to guarantee good absorption. Patients requiring higher doses are advised to spread their doses out throughout the day for optimal supplementation.
Benefits of Calcium:
• Strengthens Bones
• Weight Loss
• Regulates Blood Pressure
• Dental Care
• Prevention of colon cancer

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for blood clotting and that contributes to a healthy heart, bones and immune system.
Vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 work in synergy to increase a substance called Matrix GLA protein (MGP). This protein protects the blood vessels from calcification by congregating around the elastic fibers of the arterial lining and guarding against calcium crystal deposition.
Some researchers believe that MGP is the most powerful inhibitor of soft tissue calcification presently known. Animal studies have shown that vitamin K2 not only prevents arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis but actually has the potential to reverse arterial calcification by activating MGP.
At Aegle Pharma, Vitamin K2 is combined to Vitamin D3 at a dose of 100mcg for optimal and convenient dosing. Empower your wellness further by adding our effective Vitamin D3 and K2 combination to your daily supplement regime.
Benefits of Vitamin K2:
• To promote healthy bones
• To maintain a healthy heart
• To maintain good oral health
• To Reduce varicose veins
• To reduce risk of cancer
• Skin Health and Anti-Aging
This depends on several factors such as the complexity of your condition, how long you have had it, how much time, energy and attention you are willing to devote to treatment, and how well you respond to treatment. In general, health programs for chronic illnesses last between six and twelve months, but most patients start seeing improvement within the first month. Patients may elect to continue with a maintenance program after their initial treatment plan is finished.
