In females, hormones such as estrogen and progesterone have many protective functions, such as maintaining the elasticity of arteries, decreasing plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing blood flow, regulating collagen in the skin, and reducing the risk of cataracts. During perimenopause and menopause, sudden reduction in estrogen levels can have drastic effects on systemic health. For some women, symptom management and optimizing the balance of these hormones under the guidance of a physician may be necessary.

At Premier Physicians, we offer bio-identical hormone therapies that are individually catered to each patient’s unique hormone optimizing requirement. In creating a regimen to balance critical hormones, treatment goes beyond alleviating the symptoms of menopause and perimenopause in order to improve and maximize overall health, vitality and function.
