Frequently Asked Questions BHRT Certification Training Course

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy, or BHRT, measures the levels of key hormones in your body that become unbalanced due to stress or menopause and replace what is missing to restore symptoms. Only the actual natural hormones that are present in the human body normally are given. No synthetic drugs are used.
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy, or BHRT is used to treat menopause, andropause, menstrual cyclic abnormalities, hypothyroidism, sleep issues, and body clock disturbances.
When properly tested, replacing the exact hormone that is missing is always better and has fewer side effects compared to using drugs or not assessing levels prior to treatment. Bio-Identical hormones have a known metabolism in the body where synthetics are unpredictable in their metabolism and side effects. We also cannot reliably check levels of synthetic hormones in the body.
The only risks to hormone therapy is if the hormone is overdosed due to inferior or incomplete testing. For instance, using serum blood testing instead of saliva or pellets instead of daily creams can lead to overdosing and side effects, even from BHRT.
Salivary hormone testing allows for checking levels of hormones that have left the blood and entered a body tissue (the salivary gland). This assesses the hormone levels where they function instead of hormones that remain trapped in the bloodstream.
Salivary hormone testing of cortisol, estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone has been validated in over 1,000 papers in the medical literature since 1959.
Salivary hormone testing is most accurate to assess tissue levels of Estrogens, Progesterone, Testosterone, Cortisol, DHEA, and Melatonin
Since 2008, PracticalCME remains the only BHRT training that integrates Female, Male, Thyroid, and Adrenal testing in the same evidence-based course. The course is presented by a board-certified MD with 15 years’ experience in BHRT.

The Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy training program is affordable and convenient because it’s all done online. You’ll learn the application and science behind BHRT, allowing you to start treating without investing significant amounts of money and time.

Our BHRT training online is ideal for providers who want to implement BHRT into the practice and learn how to use it. You’ll begin to understand:

  • The validity and science behind synthetic hormones
  • Gain an in-depth study of the thyroid, adrenal hormones, sex hormones, and insulin
  • How to conduct consultations
  • How to test and evaluate patients for a hormone imbalance


Our BHRT training online course is suitable for busy medical providers who want to learn in a way that fits within their family and work lives. You can work at your own pace and will benefit your clinical practice while focusing on your patients and their overall health. Clearly, hormone therapies are a huge part of internal medicine, and you may bring that to your practice.

Yes! You’ll determine the indications available for testosterone, progesterone, and estradiol. Likewise, our course will help you understand how to use these things in those diagnosed with a hormonal deficiency and explain how to apply the knowledge in your practice.

Along with everything else, you’ll learn the basics about andropause and menopause and how to identify a hormone deficiency in women and men.

Our courses also focus on the evidence relating to cardiovascular disease, prostate cancer, and breast cancer, as well as clinical outcomes for hormone replacement in both women and men. The goal is to provide functional medicine to those in need. This requires you to have medical management and pharmacy education relating to your practice.

BHRT is primarily focused on care management because the men and women you see who require it will already have problems. The goal is to concentrate on healthy aging and offering personalized patient care with medical literature and lab tests. 

With our certification program, you will be earning your CME credit requirement for continuing education. Our online courses will ensure that you’re focused on the well-being of patients and receive knowledge-based education that will help you in all aspects of your work.

We offer online training for both saliva cortisol testing and certification and BHRT educational activity. Saliva testing is a noninvasive and simple way to measure female hormones, but BHRT can include blood testing, as well.

Regardless, the goal is to determine if there’s a female hormone imbalance, and you’ll learn about both with our online courses.

Saliva testing checks the hormone levels that have entered into the salivary gland (body tissue), which determines the levels wherever they function instead of what’s in the bloodstream.

The first step is to order the online course. We will send an email that contains your password and login information. You can work at your own pace to complete the course and then print out your certificate of completion when you’ve passed the post-test.

It’s important to check out each online course pertaining to BHRT and saliva testing, as there are multiple options. You may buy one or more, depending on your needs.

On the website, we offer four different options relating to BHRT and saliva testing. If that’s all you require, you’ll choose the one focused on saliva testing and BHRT, which is eight credits. However, we also provide other packages to meet your needs.

For example, you can get BHRT testing and also weight loss with a consultation. There are other wellness video courses available, or you may go with the BHRT, NT/GI, and weight loss courses.

If you’re having trouble deciding what’s right for you, we recommend checking out each course in the package when there are multiple ones. This will tell you what they include, and you can determine if it’s suitable for you. Alternatively, you may use the live chat feature on our website to ask questions and get advice about which courses are ideal.

We are here to help you get the courses you need for your continuing education requirements.
