Features Overview

 
 

Perimenopause/Menopause

Are you having:

  • Hot flashes (or “flushes”)

  • Irregular or heavy periods

  • Brain fog

  • Night sweats

  • Other changes & symptoms that you are feeling that something just isn’t right?

And it’s not just about all of this. Women are often uninformed about their risks of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis that increase when hormone health is not addressed at this stage of life. You deserve to know the WHOLE picture!

So let’s talk about it! We can order labs, discuss treatment options, and, if appropriate, create a hormone treatment plan that is right for you.

*Dr. Lindsey Mehran, Samantha Carry, APRN & Dr. Ryan Dick .
