Life changing if you have the right person teaching and distributing. My experience cost me my life savings, health bit to mention the mental decline and severe hair loss. Do your own homework
From what I know insurance does not cover bio identical hormone therapy , it really upsets me , something that will help women and men and insurance will not cover this 😡
Call up a compounding pharmacy and ask them the names of doctors in the area who prescribe bio-identical hormones. Typically these are called “Functional” or “Integrative” doctors.
I found a company called BioTe than does these hormone pellets. You can find a provider in your area on their website. Or, if you can find a Dr that can read your hormone levels, from having blood work done, a pharmacy can compound the hormones and they come in a capsule. You can also get hormone creams.
I can't speak for other companies or other methods but I use BioTe. It's pricey but worth it! Google it and they will let you know doctors in your area that offer it.
I searched on Google to find one close to me. Needless to say, I travel almost 60 miles away to my doctor, but I consider it to be well worth the trip and investment (since insurance doesn't pay for it 😤).
Testosterone is testosterone, but how it affects male/female does depend bc the baseline range of the person. A male friend (not even 40) finally asked his doctor for testing his levels. It's been dramatically low and likely for years and has explained so many little things medically that didn't really both him enough to seek help. Fast forward 6 months of T therapy (shots bi-weekly) and he has energy back, lost weight, sleep better, appetite control, muscle definition (without even working out, just yard work), elevated mood, clearer thinking... Brand new guy. Unfortunately in society there is astigmatization of needing low testosterone as a man especially at a young age, and the medical community/insurance doesn't help because it does not favorably explore that option because it's not a cheap pill that address random symptoms.
The WHI study's results were misrepresented willfully by the journal that published the study. A problem one of the original WHI investigators explained in a International Menopause Society, posted today on RU-vid. The journal has yet to acknowledge the complaint lodged by the study's scientists against them.
I really REALLY hope that those are not the people's real names. Who wants their personal situation discussed with THEIR NAMES mentioned on RU-vid. Surely, she made up aliases?
