Many conditions can be improved by treatment with bio-identical hormones. The obvious things have to do with female problems such as menopause, and PMS. Other conditions include, chronic pain, fatigue, sleep disorders. Even diabetes, Alzheimers, and hypertension can be improved by understanding your hormone levels.
Ideally you would start by getting tests to measure your hormone levels. This can be done either using blood tests, saliva tests, or urine. Many doctors say that testing hormone levels doesn't tell you anything but I've found that it does. Its a matter of understanding the tests that we are using and being able to extrapolate from having seen many people.
Once you have some lab levels, many supplements can be used to help balance hormones. It doesn't just have to be bio-identical hormones. Depending on your symptoms and what is out of balance, I will prescribe supplements or hormones to help you feel better.
