Why do we prefer these health panel tests?
Why do we prefer these health panel tests?
Lab drawn health panels help us identify imbalances whether hormonal, insulin, metabolic, thyroid or essential vitamin deficiency in nature. About a week after your labs are drawn we'll get back the test results, which can then review with your medical provider to determine the source of imbalance and hormonal needs. This process helps more precisely prescribe the appropriate dose.
Common Questions about Compounding & Hormone Balancing
Common Questions about Compounding & Hormone Balancing
What is compounding and why is it needed?
What is compounding and why is it needed?
"Compounding is the creation of a particular pharmaceutical product to fit a patient's unique needs. Compounding Pharmacists combine and/or process appropriate ingredient(s) utilizing various tools to do this. This may be done for medically necessary reasons, such as changing the form of the medication from a solid pill to a liquid, avoiding a non-essential ingredient the patient is allergic to or obtaining the exact dose needed. It may also be done for voluntary reasons, such as adding favorite flavors to a medication." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compounding)
What are the different dosage forms used in compounding?
What are the different dosage forms used in compounding?
An advantage of compounding is that not only can we dose very precisely, but we can also prepare your medication in a variety of dosage forms. For example, if a pill isn’t working, we can prepare it in a cream. If a child couldn't swallow a pill, we could make a liquid, with your choice of flavors. Other options are troches (lozenges) or tablet triturates that dissolve under the tongue, suppositories, vaginal creams, nasal sprays, and more. Essentially, you tell us the way you prefer to deliver the drug, and our hormone-balancing pharmacy in Salt Lake City will take care of the rest.

What are the Human Hormones?
Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone, and DHEA are the primary human sex hormones. Cortisol (or hydrocortisone) is a stress hormone that is regulated by the adrenal glands. Hormones are chemicals that help to coordinate different functions in your body by sending messages through your blood to your organs, skin, muscles and other tissues. These signals tell your body what to do and when to do it.
