Educate yourself about hormone therapy

Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, depression, weight gain, low libido, irritability.....do any of these symptoms sound familiar to you? If so, you're one of the more than 30 million women in the U.S. who are currently menopausal or one of the approximately 20 million who are on their way. While moving through this stage of life can have many rewards, dealing with these unpleasant symptoms can take all the fun out of it.
The good news is that you don't have to. Today, women have more options than ever to lessen and in many cases completely eliminate the unpleasant symptoms that accompany the onset of menopause. The trickier part is figuring out what option is best for you.
As a compounding pharmacist specializing in preparing custom formulated prescriptions, I have spoken with many women who are confused and at their wits end trying to figure out how to get their life back. I'm convinced that we are facing an epidemic of women suffering needlessly from a lack of hormonal balance. Working with knowledgeable doctors and nurse practitioners, we have been able to create tailor-made hormonal regimens that have allowed our patients to fully enjoy this wonderful stage of their lives.
At our pharmacy, we utilize natural ingredients that are plant-derived and are biologically identical to the hormones normally produced in the human body. If you choose to explore this option, the most important thing you can do to begin the process of taking control of your menopausal symptoms is to educate yourself. Talk to your doctor about your symptoms. Ask him or her about the options that are available to you. Ask if they have knowledge about and experience in prescribing bio-identical hormones.
At our pharmacy, we offer a Hormone Health consultation where we fully explain what bio-identical hormone therapy is and how we prepare, in conjunction with a physician or nurse practitioner, a custom formulation tailored to your specific needs. If you have a compounding pharmacy in your area, reach out to them. They can be a great resource.
