Hormone Doctor

By Jake Alexandre


Bioidentical hormones are laboratory made hormones, which are produced to match the hormones produced naturally by the human body in the physical and chemical properties, hence the name bioidentical. Usually when the need for the prescription of bioidentical hormones rises, most doctors are not very knowledgeable, and a wrong prescription can cause something like breast cancer. Therefore, doctors usually refrain from prescribing it. But if you are going through menopause and need some bioidentical hormone doctors to help you go through it, you need to do some research to find a doctor who not only specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, but is also supportive of it. Here is more information about finding a doctor for you.

Go to the pharmacist and ask if they sell composition pharmaceuticals. You could go to any type of pharmaceutical for this. There are several bioidentical bodily hormones which match the saliva samples, thereby pharmacists get the idea of doctors who send in the prescriptions, as well as you may inquire about the doctor's addresses from them.

You can also contact the health and wellness coordinators of your area through their advertisements. They have doctors for medical and alternative purposes, and you can find a doctor who specializes in bioidentical hormones, or has some information about it, and can refer you to someone.

One more thing you can do is look around in the food stores for their notice boards, and check if some doctor has put up any advertisement, or anything that can link up to the bioidentical hormone doctor. Doctors place their cards or contact information, to attract new patients or to make the locals aware about seminars where you can meet new doctors. You can also go though the phone directory to look up doctors. You can start with gynecologists, obstetricians and endocrinologists, or talk to a friend/relative who has gone through menopause. There is also the option for doctor locator services which you can utilize to find doctors who specialize in bioidentical hormones.

And there is always the option of making it work with your current doctor. There are many doctors who support and will fully prescribe the bioidentical hormone therapy but they just need some guidance and initial point. You can help them by doing a little research of your own from books like what your doctor may not tell you about menopause, or the Internet and get help through menopause, and its symptoms making life healthy and fun filled for you.
