Why Bio-Identical Hormones?
"Bio-identical hormones are the same hormones that your body produced after about age 12 until menopause. They may be man-made, derived from a yam plant, whatever-as long as the molecule breaks down into the same end products that your own hormones do. The molecule must act like your own hormone to be the real McCoy. Progestin which is supposed to be a synthetic progesterone ONLY helps to prevent break through bleeding, but the STATED side effects include weight gain, depression, and acne! Progesterone, the great balancer to estradiol, taken at bedtime provides the deepest most restful sleep. No more bloating, or tender breasts. Progesterone promotes calmness and even serenity, with no more crying over minor problems. Progesterone is actually sold over the counter in a low potency cream. The synthetic progestin is not sold OTC."

"As women approach menopause, the first hormone to leave the body is progesterone, not estrogen. I measure hormone levels, so many times when women come to me with hot flashes, worsening premenstrual cramping and moodiness, I find that progesterone is deficient. The solution for severe post partum depression and premenstrual syndrome has been known for over 50 years."

Anti-Aging Medicine: The unrecognized specialty
"Many doctors now prescribe “bio-identical” hormones or may actually label themselves as “Anti-Aging”, without having taken any seminars, attended conferences, or passed specialty exams. It reminds me of Emergency Medicine in the 1960s. Anyone could work in an ER--any family doc, psychiatrist, or internist could fill in a shift at the local hospital emergency room. In those days, the Emergency Department did not exist, and seriously ill patients came to a small room set aside in a big hospital. "

Brain cell death and menopause
"The hallmark of menopause, that embarrassing symptom so difficult to disguise and so distressing is the hot flash. Temperature deregulation describes the cluster of sensations which include burning hot one minute and then freezing cold, redness and flushing of the face and neck, and an overwhelming need to fan oneself due to profuse perspiration. But, is that symptom really merely a passing momentary discomfort, or something much worse, best described as brain cell death? "

21st Century Medicine: Anti-Aging Therapy
"“I just want to feel like myself again!”
“My husband especially wanted you to fix my sex drive (laughter).”
