We partner with several different lab companies and costs depend on the type of testing you need (blood, saliva, urine, stool, hair) or what you want to test for. Some tests are as little as $49 while others as high as $1,995. We are happy to share those costs during your FREE consultation so you know which direction makes the most sense for you at this time. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS ON LAB TESTING or LAB TESTING REVIEW SERVICES.

Peri-menopause is the time frame before menopause when period changes start to happen. This can be anywhere from 2-20 years before a woman’s last menstrual period. 

Menopause comes next, the end of the menstrual periods. You have officially entered menopause after 12 months with no period. Month 13 = menopause. 

Post-menopause follows menopause and lasts for the rest of a woman’s life. 

The average age for the last period has fallen over the years and the current age is 51.

The timeline and results vary between individuals and most people notice positive changes starting to happen within 7-10 days. Optimization is a journey and unique process and takes a few months to develop.

Some patients report increased energy, better sleep and moods, improved memory, and reduced hot flashes in as little as a few days after starting treatment. Improved sex drives can take a bit longer - but hang on!
