Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Dr. Wilson works with adult men and women to improve their overall health by optimizing their hormones. In addition to using standard laboratory testing, similar to those ordered by a conventional doctor, Dr. Wilson utilizes more specific markers and advanced laboratory testing to provide an in-depth assessment of your health. With more data about your health, Dr. Wilson is able to better understand your current health status and provide more finely tuned and comprehensive treatment plans.
Hormone therapy is indicated for men and women who experience symptoms of age related hormone deficiency or dysfunction, commonly known as andropause and menopause, respectively . Common symptoms of andropause also called “manopause” include erectile dysfunction, low libido, fatigue and low stamina, weight gain, irritability and more. Common symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, vaginal dryness, low libido, headaches, and fatigue.
Beyond these symptoms patients are largely unaware of how important their hormones are for proper function of the body. In addition to andropause and menopause, bHRT is also beneficial for men and women with cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and neuro-cognitive issues such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Dr. Wilson uses bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (bHRT) using hormones that are the exact same in molecular structure to ones naturally occurring in your body. As an integrative naturopathic doctor, Dr. Wilson also uses natural treatment options for hormone optimization for men and women.

HORMONES CAUSE CANCER, RIGHT? NOT EXACTLY…
