What to Expect
During your consult, we’ll take a thorough health history and review your symptoms. Lab work helps us understand your hormone levels, thyroid function, metabolic markers, and more. We’ll then create a personalized treatment plan that may include BHRT, lifestyle modifications, supplements, or additional testing.
We Listen. We Don’t Rush.
Your symptoms are not “just aging.” Stephanie takes a root-cause approach — getting to the bottom of what’s driving how you feel, not masking it.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
We offer bioidentical hormone options that match your body’s own hormones, in the form that works best for your lifestyle and health goals.
Estrogen Therapy
Bioidentical estradiol is prescribed in patch, cream, injection, gel, spray, oral, or pellet form to address hot flashes, bone density, mood, sexual desire, and vaginal health.
Progesterone Support
Bioidentical progesterone is prescribed in an oral, cream, or pellet form and helps balance estrogen, supports sleep and mood, and protects the uterine lining.
Testosterone for Women
Low-dose testosterone therapy in the form of oral, injection, pellet, or cream can help restore energy, libido, mental clarity, and muscle tone in women experiencing a deficiency.
Thyroid, Adrenal & Root-Cause Care

Women’s Health FAQs
Perimenopause is the transition phase leading up to menopause, typically starting in your 40s, where hormone levels begin to fluctuate. Menopause is confirmed after 12 consecutive months without a period. Both phases can cause significant symptoms that we can help manage.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to your body’s own hormones. We review your personal health history and run comprehensive labs before recommending any hormone therapy. Your safety and informed consent are always the priority.
No — we can order labs as part of your initial consultation. If you have recent lab work, feel free to bring it. We’ll review everything together and determine what additional testing may be needed.
Our consultations are cash-pay. Labs ordered through insurance may be covered depending on your plan. We’ll clarify costs at your visit.
