Are bio-identical hormones the answer to our chronic disease and aging dilemma? Modern women today are living over 1/3 of their life in menopause. Headaches, irritability, low libido, depression, heart disease…… are only some of the symptoms associated with being hormone free after menopause.
Although not right for everyone, for some people, hormone replacement therapy is the key to getting back to optimal health.
Bioidentical hormone therapy is often called “natural hormone therapy” because bioidentical hormones act in the body just like the hormones we produce.
The Details – How it works
The Naturopathic Doctors who are qualified to prescribe bio-identical hormone work with only highly reputable compounding pharmacies.
