Hormone Therapy
In the past, hormone therapy was limited in its treatment options and was used only to ease and treat menopausal symptoms. But now we know that hormone therapy can offer a whole host of benefits and preserve our long-term health.
Both men and women can benefit from hormone therapy. And at Preston Medical Associates, we only offer the best treatment methods. Long gone are the days of creams, patches, and pills, as we prefer to use a natural alternative to synthetic hormones.
FNP Schquthia Peacock has been trained under the EvexiPEL method, allowing her to learn from some of the top hormone experts in the world. The EvexiPEL method employs a superior approach to BHRT with pellets; using pellets means less hassle and more reliable results for patients looking to optimize their hormones.
