Seriously??? Many traditional doctors (that don’t really understand Bio-Identical Hormones) are prescribing antidepressants for menopausal hot flashes. Some potential side effects of antidepressants include: Anxiety, Blurred vision, Constipation, Dizziness, Dry mouth, Fatigue, Feeling numb, Insomnia, Nausea, & Sexual side effects.

Many patients say, “I didn’t feel sad, I don’t understand why I was prescribed this – it actually makes me feel sad and I have gained weight!” OK, so you are on an antidepressant for hot flashes, you feel sad and gain weight.

OK, let’s go on a diet pill. Now your blood pressure has gone up. Now your thyroid is wacky and your cholesterol has gone up. You can’t sleep. So, what is the answer? Diet Pills, Blood Pressure Medicine, Thyroid medicine, Statins, and pills for insomnia?

Why not just treat the root of the problem with what your body is no longer producing. Bio-Identical Hormones. Our ovaries naturally produce both estrogen & testosterone, over the years they decline, and we don’t feel well.

“Bio” is for Biology – plant derived hormones. “Identical” is referring to the chemical molecule in our products are identical to what we used to produce.
