How do you get on female hormone therapy?
Call your Ob/GYN and make an appointment. They may do a hormone level blood test and ask you a few questions. I have been on it 8 years and it is great ( don't care what the news accounts tell us. They said the same things about birth control in the 1960's). I'd like to add that there are compounding Pharmacies that have Bio-identical Hormones if you can't tolerate the hormones given by your OB/GYN. There are places to do saliva tests, often right at these pharmacies... consider reading Suzanne Sommer's books about aging and HRT. As our hormones decrease we begin having many degenerative effects since hormones run everything in our bodies. I found a place to get help by searching online... since my doctor wanted me to not take anything and just allow my hormones to run down. I'm so tired... here comes the wrinkles, poly-cystic disease starting, all related to this run down of hormones. There is help for men too going through andropause, as long as they have no prostate cancer cells. Men shouldn't wait until their testosterone drops too low, get the bio identical hormones, it is said to protect the prostate from cancer.
Is hormone replacement therapy expensive?
Hormone levels decline as we age; bioidentical hormone therapy replenishes the hormones that your body needs to function. BodyLogicMD's bioidentical hormone doctors use natural or bioidentical hormones versus bio-similar or synthetic hormones. Bioidentical hormones are molecule-by-molecule, exactly the same as the hormones (estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, cortisol, dhea, estradiol and estriol) present in the human body. Your bioidentical hormone replacement physician will assess your individual needs and work to restore these hormones and customize a medical plan specifically for you.
