Menopause Hormone Therapy In Collingwood
Our life expectancy is higher than ever before, and women spend much of their lives without estrogen and progesterone in their post-menopausal years. Hormones have many benefits to supporting our health and longevity in both the Peri-menopausal and Menopausal periods.
We intend to bolster fading levels of hormones to manage symptoms of low hormones and promote optimal health. This strategy is helpful for patients who don't respond to herbs, supplements, and other natural hormone-balancing remedies. Every prescription is customized to your unique needs and sometimes is even custom-formulated through a compounding pharmacy.
