The Endocrine Society describes BHRT as a Hormone therapy that has the same chemical and molecular structure as the estrogens and progesterone produced within the human body.
BHRT is made up of 2 formulations: bi‐est(rogen) and tri‐est(rogen). BHRT prescriptions are formulated to be administered Orally, Transdermal, or through the Vaginal route, depending on the needs of each patient. Some patients may require a dual-route treatment to effectively manage their symptoms.

Please note that although testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone are sometimes added to BHRT preparations by compounding pharmacies, the main components are estrogen and progesterone.
BHRT compounded formulations are amongst the most advanced hormone replacement therapy currently used in a wide variety of FDA‐approved formulations for the treatment of perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.
