Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), Hormones, Menopause
About hormones is an informational website to help women better understand hormones, Menopause and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT)-- including estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones, DHEA and DHEA sulfate, and occasionally human growth hormone (HGH) if indicated.
Dr. John R. Woodward has dedicated his career to helping women around the world with a wide range of health problems. He completed medical school and residency training at Yale Medical School and Yale-New Haven Medical Center in 1965. When it comes to treating women with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Woodward is very experienced and highly qualified.
Estrogen therapy administered orally received a lot of publicity about the dangers of estrogen. The result is many women who would benefit from “hormone replacement therapy “ (HRT) have quit taking estrogen or refuse to consider it at all. That is unfortunate because hormone replacement is an excellent way to reduce the symptoms and physical effects of menopause.There is an alternative to the problems associated with orally administered estrogen. Dr. Woodward's patients use "Estradiol" topical cream that is applied directly to the skin and does not pass through the liver. Estradiol pellets, which are commonly used in England, are implanted just below the skin to provide a constant level of hormones. Both methods stop hormonal fluctuation that produces migraines, mood swings, depression, hot flashes, sleep disruption, and mental confusion.
The respected Cooper Clinic in Dallas Texas conducted two studies of his patients to determine bone density and arterial calcium buildup. The studies found that his patients have 11% better bone density and 26% less calcified arteriosclerotic plaques than patients referred by other doctors. Furthermore the difference increased by ages 65 to 70. This tells us that "bioidentical hormone replacement" therapy is not only effective but also safer.
If you are suffering from "hormone depletion" I urge you to learn more about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Please feel free to contact me at 972-566-7870.

Evaluate Hormones
Blood testing (as opposed to saliva testing) to "evaluate hormone levels" is only superior if it is done correctly by a reference laboratory such as InterScience Institute, Inglewood, California. Most commercial labs do not do the preliminary extraction of metabolites and contaminants necessary to make hormone testing accurate. Unfortunately, these reference labs are being driven out of business by HMO’s who refuse to pay for tests that are done by them. Money (or the lack of it) is at the root of the problem (i.e., insurance companies
