Personal Program for Hormonal Imbalance
with Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement
Therapy - by Dr. Sunny Bangaar M.D.

 

Most of us put enormous demands on our body - much more stress than it was designed to handle - and don't give it adequate support. Constant stress is especially harmful. Most women have demanding jobs, run a household, and are parent and caregivers. All these demands tend peak in perimenopause. The support we give our bodies is usually inadequate. This imbalance between demand and support is what give rise to our many symptoms. PMS, hot flashes, insomnia, fatigue, weight gain, loss of libido, suppressed immune system, inflammation, accelerated again and increased risk of disease.

In my practice, I have had the greatest success with an individualized approach. The personalized program begins with laboratory tests of hormone level / "hormone panel". When warranted, I then recommend a precise dosage of bio-identical estrogen / progesterone, testosterone, or DHEA etc... Each patient and then monitored carefully through regular follow up hormone panels to ensure symptom relief. In the initial stages, a hormone panel is done every three months. Once balance is restored; one panel a year at the time of the annual exam is done.
