Why hormones and why bio-identical hormones?
 
When you maintain youthful sex hormone levels, you stop the symptoms of menopause or andropause and slow aging.  Maintaining youthful levels of the sex hormones will also improve your sleep, muscle mass and assist in balancing other hormones.  Some authors believe it will reduce your incidence of dementia and cancer.
 
Using the plant based bio-identical hormones is a better more true fit to the hormore receptor.  Plants have been used for medicinal purposes for years.  In the case of sex hormones: estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA, the plant based hormone fits our receptor like our our natural hormones.  Ask me more.
 
Dr. Thurman has trained in several different methods of hormone replacement.  He is certified with Cenegenics™, The Wiley Protocol™ and BioTE™ hormone implants.
