Bioidentical Hormone Therapy on Salt Spring Island

Hormones that match your biology.

Bioidentical hormones are prescription hormones that are structurally identical to what your body produces naturally. Because they match your biology exactly, they tend to be better absorbed with fewer side effects than synthetic alternatives.

Hormonal imbalances affect nearly every system in your body — energy, mood, sleep, metabolism, libido, and cognitive function. Whether you're navigating menopause, andropause, thyroid dysfunction, or adrenal fatigue, restoring hormonal balance can dramatically improve how you feel day to day.

Because bioidentical hormones can't be patented by pharmaceutical companies, they remain accessible and widely available through compounding pharmacies. Every protocol I prescribe is tailored to your lab work, symptoms, and goals. I monitor levels closely and adjust dosing to achieve optimal balance — not just numbers that fall within a 'normal' range.

I work with compounding pharmacies to create individualized formulations when needed, ensuring you receive precisely the right hormones in the right forms and doses for your body.
