I have seen hormones change my patients lives only for the better. I have had patients that couldn't even live a productive live due to lack of hormones. I have seen cholesterol levels drop, reduction of A1'c, I have had patients that suffer metabolic syndrome, and once treated over time this condition improved. Right now America is in crisis with various health conditions that hormones will help. Why would we not want to treat our patients with hormones. American is under a financial burden with health care cost, my thought hormone therapy will help reduce these costs as people age. As for myself, I didn't enter into taking hormones lightly, I was miserable due to menopause, I researched and learned. Hormones improved my life dramatically, and decided to even learn more and to bring this treatment to my patients.
