Compounded Biest for Ames Patients
Biest is a compounded bioidentical estrogen preparation combining estradiol (E2) and estriol (E3) — most commonly in an 80:20 estriol-to-estradiol ratio. It is prescribed as part of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) protocols for menopausal symptoms, genitourinary syndrome of menopause, and clinician-directed HRT titration. Because Biest is a custom combination of two estrogens, it is not FDA-approved and is only available through licensed 503A compounding pharmacies with a valid prescription. Compounding pharmacies prepare Biest as transdermal creams and gels, sublingual troches, vaginal creams and suppositories, and oral capsules at prescriber-specified ratios and strengths. Compounding Finder connects Ames patients with 84 licensed compounding pharmacies — so you can compare pricing, formulations, and turnaround times at no cost.
