During my pre-menopausal years it was apparent that my body was deficient in needed hormones that stabilized my endocrine system. Blood work was completed and the deficiency was noted and a compounded medication was ordered I was brought back into balance. A one size fits all dosage for individuals who need hormonal supplementation is dangerous to the health of those who may need less of a hormone and are getting more because it is standardized. When a deficiency is noted in any area of our health the goal is to supplement the needed dosage.
