Irregular, Heavy and/or Painful Periods & Fertility Support
Naturopathic medicine is well-suited to support hormonal imbalances including conditions like irregular periods, fertility support, family planning, fibroids, endometriosis, and PCOS. After a thorough intake I will often test female hormones either in the blood or via a DUTCH urine hormone test. These results can help us understand what is happening and how to treat it.
Peri-menopause & Menopause Support
I use a variety of supports to help soften the transition that is peri-menopause and menopause. I like to view this time in one's life as a shedding of your old skin and habits and becoming a new, better version of yourself. A treatment plan might include:
- dietary strategies
- lifestyle changes
- herbal medicine
- acupuncture
- hormone replacement therapy.
Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
If indicated and determined safe, I can prescribe the following for fertility, peri-menopause, menopause, and hypothyroidism:
- topical progesterone cream
- topical estrogen cream
- vaginal estrogen cream
- desiccated thyroid
