Compounding Pharmacy for Women

For decades medical professionals have advised women on how to deal with the sometimes overwhelming symptoms of menopause, peri-menopause and other women’s issues commonly associated with hormone imbalance.

From hot flashes to dry skin, loss of memory, to loss of sex drive, Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy offers welcome relief. By balancing a woman’s fluctuating hormone levels, BHRT can lessen or eliminate many of her symptoms.

The powerful triad of patient, physician and pharmacist works to develop a custom designed course of treatment that addresses each individual woman’s needs.

After her physician makes an assessment of her symptoms and an analysis of her hormone levels, the compounding pharmacist creates a personalized formula of Bio-Identical Hormones. With the exact chemical structure found in her body’s own hormones, Bio-Identical Hormones work to naturally balance a woman’s levels and alleviate her symptoms.

Menopause

The Healthy Choice Compounding Pharmacy helps individualize the path you choose but you must be an active participant in the process to be successful. We will work with you and your physician to put together a comprehensive program that includes Bio-Identical Hormones, nutritional supplements, lifestyle recommendations and dietary suggestions.

Peri-Menopause

Have you noticed a decrease in libido, mood changes or increased anxiety? These are symptoms of a hormone inbalance and we can help you find relief. As your hormones are fluctuating you may feel these changes are just part of the aging process but they don’t have to be! Now is the time to be proactive and take charge of your life. The first step is to form a healthcare team that will help guide you through the menopause maze.

Hysterectomy / Estrogen Dominance

Over half of all women who have had a hysterectomy will experience symptoms of hormone imbalance. In many cases it can be severe.

Our goal is to help put you back in balance. We believe it is important to restore all your hormones, not just estrogen.

You will also need DHEA, testosterone and progesterone.

Some physicians feel because you don’t have a uterus you don’t need progesterone, but progesterone doesn’t just protect the uterus, it opposes estrogen throughout your entire body. It will also help with sleep, anxiety, poor mood, just to name a few.

To help patients reduce the stress their body is under and achieve optimal health, we take an integrative approach recommending Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) along with a nutrition and fitness regimen.

When a woman’s levels of estrogen are not correctly balanced by progesterone she is experiencing estrogen dominance. It doesn’t matter how much estrogen is in the body if it is not properly balanced.

Women’s hormonal imbalances have many negative side effects and estrogen dominance is no exception. Symptoms can include headaches, mood swings, fatigue, irregular or heavy periods and osteoporosis.

Estrogen dominance can lead to higher instances of breast or uterine cancer, because the estrogen is not regulated by progesterone within the body.

Without balanced regulation by progesterone, estrogen can cause damage to major organs and unpleasant symptoms. Balance hormones with BHRT to ensure an individualized approach, which takes into account all hormone levels.

Many women experience estrogen dominance because they are receiving estrogen supplements from a doctor or pharmacy that does not understand the importance of hormone balancing when giving menopause symptom relief.

Unless a bioidentical hormone therapy is well thought out and personalized you could be trading one set of symptoms for another, caused by a different hormone imbalance.

Bio identical hormone therapy can be used to balance estrogen levels. When a skilled BHRT compounding pharmacy provides care they take into account hormonal balance. Estrogen and progesterone always go hand-in-hand and both need to be taken into account to prevent women’s hormonal imbalances.

The Healthy Choice Compounding Pharmacy has been helping women balance their hormones naturally through bio identical hormone replacement therapy. Find menopause relief today.

Libido

Where has it GONE? For women it isn’t as easy as taking that little blue pill. With women we take a multi-faceted approach. The main thing we discuss is stress reduction as it is said, “Men have sex to relax while women have to be relaxed to have sex!” We recommend supplements, exercise, proper diet and sleep along with hormone balancing. If you can achieve these things you will be on your way back to a healthy sex life!

PMS and PMDD

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and the more severe condition Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) require different therapies. If you have increased anxiety, water weight gain, hormonal headaches, etc. this could be due to a progesterone deficiency. Depending on your age and the severity of your symptoms we can advise of the course of action you need to take. We are here to help you design a plan that normalizes your hormones to reduce unwanted side effects.

Yeast

We have found the most important component for our patients is DIET. If you don’t address your diet you will be on diflucan forever! You must cut out all forms of SUGAR! Breads, pasta, etc. are like lighter fuel for yeast cells as they accelerate yeast growth. There are supplements that will kill the yeast and restore the normal flora so you don’t get a rebound from the die off of the yeast. Contact us for a custom approach to your specific needs.

CANCER – WHY SUPPLEMENTS?   

Not big on taking supplements? You may want to rethink why you may need to, to help lower your risk factors for breast cancer. Unfortunately, often it is when the diagnosis is made, that many women completely convert to healthy eating and supplementation. Supplements can be part of prevention in a big way – why?

1) No matter how healthy and plant-based you eat, chances are good those foods, even organic, are grown over and over again in the same soils and the mineral content of that soil becomes depleted over time.

2) You may be overcooking your food, losing most of the nutritional value of the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and enzymes. Eating depleted foods over time affect the body’s life force energy and can create its own set of health problems.

3) Skipping meals is a practice that has become more common in the over-scheduled world we live in. If you are grabbing a donut and coffee for breakfast and rushing off to work or school, that is NOT a meal. Eating like this puts a lot of unnecessary stress on the digestive system.

4) In general, as you age, your body produces fewer enzymes, including all the important ones needed to properly digest and assimilate the foods you eat. Eventually, this results in “common” stomach complaints, like reflux, heartburn, upset stomach and chronic constipation.

5) Between commitments to family, school, work, community and other obligations, our lives are stressed to the max! All of this stress takes a toll on your body and weakens your immune system. Taking supplements can help to bridge that gap and give your body some of the nutrition it needs to function optimally.
