Dr. Daenell:
So unless something is so confusing that we can’t figure it out, I typically don’t necessarily want to look at blood levels of hormones. Having been in this practice for ten years and treating that many women, when I take the case, when I listen to her story, I pretty much know where to start, and doing those blood levels, all that gives a doctor is a place to start, and every doctor then has to adjust to the individual based on how they are reacting.
So I skip that part for most women and go to the place where we know where to start, and we adjust for the individual.
