Peri/ Menopause

Hot flashes and lack of sleep, mood swings and brain fog, vaginal dryness and libido fizzling do not need to be your reality.

While menopause is a natural phenomenon, the lead up can be filled with life-changing symptoms. Hormone changes go beyond estrogen alone. Often with peri-menopausal concerns there are issues with the adrenals (stress response) and/or thyroid. We investigate thoroughly to ensure we know what is uniquely impacting you. We’ll work with you to improve your well-being and ease this transition using natural supplements, herbs and/or acupuncture. We use natural remedies to mimic hormone activity in a safe and effective way to resolve your symptoms. 

We also have a Nurse Practitioner in our practice who offers consultation on hormone therapy. In your first visit, you’ll review the risks and benefits of hormone therapy and find out if you’re a good candidate for treatment. Our Nurse Practitioner will order some blood work and then see you back for a prescribing visit, where she is able to make specific recommendations for hormone therapy based on your symptoms and test results.
