After having a hysterectomy, my MD gynecologist surgeon tried to regulate my hormones with injections, patches, gels and creams. They all failed to regulate or balance my hormones. He then referred me to a ND to try bioidentical hormones. THEY WORK! I've been balanced because of them and my bloodwork is an accurate snapshot of what is happening in my body. I'm so grateful for bioidentical hormones, and the personal approach to how my specific body is working because of them.
