I really do not want to use any HRT therapy, even bio-identicals. can you recommend a type of Dr. to see that can treat menopause symptoms without a prescription of some type?
If a person has any imbalance, it means that they need some support for one of their glands. Usually the problem with menopause is exhausted adrenals. the adrenals are supposed to take over with estrogen production when the ovaries stop. But without sufficent adrenals, this doesn't happen.
But, the best way to go is to get a nutritionist who can test you and give you supplements that will help to support what ever gland isn't responding correctly.
Please, stay away from HRT, if you are having troubles with menopause do your self a favor go to a doctor that practices NATURAL MEDICINE. HRT is 100% a woman killer, can cause strokes, heart attacks, cancer and other things you don't want to suffer.
Red Clover and black cohosh are both used to help with menopause. I personally see a ND who specializes in female hormone issues. Check on line, look for a local herbalist, ND, or holistic practitioner.
