Overview of Hormonal Therapy INTRODUCTION:
As a gynecologist, I have treated women for 30 years. Women know their bodies and know when they are feeling well. Most feel the "best ever" when pregnant. Their hormone levels are then the highest they will ever be with estrogens surging 10-20 times higher than in a non-pregnant state. Boundless energy, a body strong enough to internally support a child, and the energy and reserve to survive through childbirth are true measures of the strength of a woman's hormones.

However, in the postpartum period, she loses all these protective hormones. Many women suffer the "blues" and even devastating "postpartum depression." The lack of hormones triggers profound behavioral and psychological effects.

That is why in the last 20 years I have focused on trying to understand these natural 'ups' and 'downs' of hormones and have learned how to use natural hormones as the primary treatment of women's disorders. Since most menstrual pain, PMS and headaches occur within a few days of the onset of menstrual flow, I have been able to change the hormones and eliminated most menstrual pain, PMS and prevent 85% of menstrually related migraine. Since women on oral contraceptives have decreased testosterone, the addition of this hormone has relieved depression and brought back normal sexual responses. And for the women nearing or in the menopause, natural estrogen, progesterone and testosterone brings a rebirth of her energy, desire and ability to "get-up-and-go" back.

Hormones are the most necessary part of a woman's Anti-aging Package. For without youthful levels of hormones, one cannot stop the ravages of the hands of time.
