“Bioidentical” has become a marketing term used by certain industries to create fear and sell products that aren’t always safe.
Normal women’s testosterone levels range from 8 to 60.
What I often see with pellets? 200 or higher- that’s men’s levels.
The side effects can be serious: hair loss, cystic acne, permanent voice deepening, and an enlarged cl****is. Just because something is labeled “bioidentical” doesn’t mean it’s safe or evidence based.

Part 2 → We’ll pinpoint your personal perimenopausal symptom set so you can create a clear, customized treatment plan from lifestyle changes and non-hormonal options to menopausal hormone therapy.
Part 3 → It’s all about smooth sailing into menopause and setting yourself up for lifelong health and vitality.

A great clinical should be actively building your confidence about why you are on your unique hormone therapy regimen. Moreover, you should know why it’s safe and even the studies that prove it.
This is what we do for our patients at .telemed . Do you feel like you get the support you need in building your MHT confidence?

Pellet injections aren’t the same as personalized care.
Once they’re in, you can’t adjust or stop them, for 3 months.
💖 That’s not hormone therapy done right.

True or false: if you’re super healthy, perimenopause will be easy.
❌ False.
You can’t “green juice” your way out of hormone changes, and that’s okay. Real solutions exist, like menopausal hormone therapy (MHT).

True or false: if you balance your hormones in perimenopause, you’ll feel better?
💖 Kind of false!
You can’t actually balance hormones in perimenopause- because your hormones are naturally fluctuating and unpredictable.
The real way to feel better is by treating those changes with menopausal hormone therapy (MHT). It’s about replacing what’s declining, not trying to “balance” it.
