The Difference Between Traditional and
Bio-identical Hormones

Bio-identical hormones are plant-derived hormones that are identical in molecular structure to the hormones women make in their own bodies.

Bio-identical hormones are not found in this form in the natural world, but are plant chemical extracts which are made in a laboratory into the hormonal human form.

In comparison, traditional hormones are made up of natural hormone molecules with synthetics (acetate and methyl) added to them.

Bio-identical hormones may be tweaked in the lab so that they have the same molecular structure as the human body, but nothing is added to them. Because there is nothing added to them, there are fewer side effects when compared to traditional hormones.

Bio-identical hormones can be taken by pills, patches, creams, lotions or as vaginal rings.

Our patients say,

  • You guys are the best! Always so kind and helpful 🙂 My most favorite doctor's office to visit.

  • I called Dr. Leibman's office and Dina answered. I was in horrific pain and she could hear that in my voice. She booked an appointment for me immediately. It was my first time seeing Dr. Leibman. It got BETTER from there. Wow, what a great doctor and staff. Thank you for helping me.

  • I've been a pt. of Dr. Leibman for well over 15 years. I was referred to his office for a hysterotomy and wow, what a fantastic job he did. I've stayed with his office because of his bedside manner, his TRUE care and concern for his Pt.'s, and his honesty and gentle treatment. My daughter started visiting Dr. Leibman's office a few years ago as a teen, she was scared to see the "lady doctor." Dr. Leibman and his nurse Dena made her visit pleasant, putting her on the right track for her health. I cannot thank him enough for helping her overcome her fear. We both hope that Dr. Leibman and Nurse Dena never retire, it's TEN stars from us.

  • "My experience with Michelle has been one of very individual treatment. She developed a process using special Dermavidual products on a daily basis. In a short time people began commenting on how my skin looked many years younger than my chronological age!"
