CAUTION from Dr. John R. Lee, M.D.
Dr. John Lee was an international authority and pioneer in the use of natural progesterone cream and natural hormone balance. The following is advice from his web site:
"Find a Doctor Who Uses Natural Hormones"
"Not all doctors who use natural hormones use them the way Dr. Lee recommended. Please avoid doctors who use mega-doses of hormones--you'll just create new hormone imbalances. Also avoid doctors who think it's a good idea to have menopausal women menstruating again--this is not a safe practice."
"One of the best sources of information for finding a doctor in your area is a compounding pharmacist:
COMPOUNDING PHARMACISTS
Compounding pharmacists make individualized medications, including natural hormones and many of them work with doctors who use natural hormones. In fact, many compounding pharmacists are more educated than the doctors they work with about how to best use natural hormones, and can help educate and guide a doctor who is unsure."
OUT OF OUR AREA?
If you have meet resistance in obtaining Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy at your doctor's office our BHRT pharmacists are very willing to speak to your doctor or nurse practitioner, on your behalf, to introduce to them the risks and benefits of natural hormone therapy for you. Some MD’s and NP’s are skeptical due to lack of information. Also some patients have a difficult time explaining what exactly it is they are requesting. In fact, most of the MD’s and NP’s with whom we currently work needed some indoctrination to be convinced of the efficacy of natural hormone replacement therapy. If your healthcare provider is still reluctant after speaking with us then we will use our resources to locate an MD near you who is already prescribing natural hormones.
How will I get my natural hormones?
We are currently consulting with and filling prescriptions for women in many states across the US. You can receive your prescription from our lab by Priority Mail (3 days) or Express Mail (next day). Once your hormones are "In Balance" and correct dosage levels have been determined, you may choose to have our lab set-up a regularly scheduled delivery.
