“I have been in practice for several decades and have aged with my patients. I have seen the changes my patients have had to go through because of menopause, perimenopause, and hormone imbalances. I have tried in the past to use the traditional and synthetic medications to help them with this but have only achieved mixed results. I believe bio-identical hormones, dosed correctly based on each individuals hormone measurements, and delivered via pellets, offers the patient the best chance to achieve symptomatic relief.”
