Learn how to test and naturally treat imbalances in female/male, adrenal, and thyroid hormones.

PracticalCME offers the most comprehensive one-day course in Bio-Identical Hormone testing and balancing anywhere. In addition to instruction on testing and treating menopause and premenstrual female hormone imbalance, we also examine thyroid, adrenal, and male hormone imbalances.

"Yours was the 4th different lecture on Bio-Identical Hormones that I have attended. It was by far the most comprehensive and passionate presentation on the subject."

-Course Participant

Stress. Everyone agrees there is too much of it in our society today. The effects of stress on the body's delicate hormone balance can lead to symptoms like fatigue, low energy, irritability, sleep disturbances, foggy thinking, low sex drive, menstrual irregularities, and even appetite changes with weight gain. Many physicians try to treat these symptoms with antidepressants, sleeping pills, and synthetic hormones like birth control pills. Menopause, and its symptoms are another stressor that has been historically misunderstood and mistreated. Patients are becoming more and more frustrated with the traditional treatment approach that often leads to more side effects than success. Our course will teach you how to accurately test for and treat the wide variety of underlying hormonal imbalances that lead to these common symptoms.

"The natural hormone balancing course expanded my knowledge base exponentially. I was even able to diagnose and help my wife's adrenal fatigue."

-Course Participant

Using an evidence-based approach, this course will review the basic regulatory physiology behind the male and female sex hormones, adrenal hormones, and thyroid hormones. We will also detail the effects of stress, menopause, prescription medications, and aging on all of these systems. After reviewing the support in the literature behind salivary testing, we will give instruction on how to test for imbalances in saliva and blood, and replace deficiencies with vitamin, herbal, and/or bio-identical hormone therapy.

Physicians who have added this service have noted an immediate increase in new patients and more affluent patients. We will also detail how these services, even when accepting insurance, can be 2-3 times more profitable than regular office visits. Upon completion, the attendees will be ready to incorporate this service into their practices immediately. In a recent survey, ALL of the doctors who have completed this course and implemented the service into their practice report that they enjoy their practice more and are making more money.
