Female hormones - help/advice please

Long time ago one of you recommended someone who 'sorts out' our oestrogen, progesterone etc and I just went to find your message and can't find it. Please, could anyone recommend someone who will help?

Where do you live? Most bioidentical hormone specialists are in London or the south east. You could just search the web for bioidentical HRT and then talk to the clinics and decide who you prefer.

Thanks Angel of the North but it's not particularly bioidentical I'm after, I did try them. I'd like a professional who will run tests to assess what I need and then prescribe. Someone on here recommended someone who had helped her greatly but although I've searched through my 'chats' I can't find it.

Your NHS GP can prescribe synthetic HRT, bu tyou might need a referral to gynaecology

Yes, but, my NHS GP is totally anti HRT. I had a hysterectomy (cancer) at 34 so stopped having periods. Now aged 63 I must be post-menopausal but successive GPs have not offered any help other than vaginal pessaries - specifically because they don't affect the rest of the body, but, I think the rest of my body, bones particularly, needs a little help now.

Whoever it was who told me on here about someone said that person, a lady doctor I think, would treat you individually and with care, so, I am hoping the same person might see this post and reply, or someone else who can point me in the right direction, even if it means paying for private care.
