In later years, men and women often need supplemental hormone therapy to maintain youthful energy, vigor and emotional balance. Much recent negative attention has focused on synthetic hormone replacement treatments. Synthetic hormones are now being shown to be unpredictable and sometimes harmful. This is not true of natural human hormones.
It is our practice to individualize treatment, depending on the needs, the clinical situation and the particular patient's history. We use only natural hormones, rather than synthetic. This means bioidentical human hormones, which are the same hormones the youthful body makes. These are accepted by the body as natural.
Since 1994, our experience has been that these hormones relieve symptoms with few to no side effects. They provide long term protection against degenerative diseases, such as osteoporosis, while minimizing cancer risk.
We assess hormone levels through blood or saliva testing, and monitor their effectiveness with bone density tests and thermography. Our treatment protocols have been developed based on the work of John R. Lee, M.D., Christiane Northrup, M.D. and other innovative holistic practitioners like Julian Whitaker, M.D. and Jonathan Wright, M.D.
