BIEST Transdermal Cream:
Compounded bio-identical Estradiol (E32) combined with bioidentical Estriol (often dispensed as a 80/20 ratio) is popularly known as BIEST amongst compounding pharmacists, physicians, and patients. Biest cream may be prescribed to treat low estrogen levels in women.
The most recognizable symptom of estrogen deficiency is probably hot flashes, night sweats, or mood swings. However, estrogen deficiency can also bring dry skin (including vaginal dryness), shortness of breath, and headaches. Mood can be further affected by anxiety, depression, memory loss, and a myriad of sex dysfunctions, including vaginal shrinkage, painful intercourse, difficulty achieving orgasms and, unsurprisingly, low sex drive.
