You’ve probably heard talk around here at drlife.com about hormones and their huge importance within the subject of #optimalhealth.  Good news!  If your hormone levels aren’t where they should be, there are hormone replacement options available!

But what does that look like?  

Sometimes, it’s best to have a first-hand walk through on the topic of hormone replacement.  Here’s a great article from Esquire magazine that mentions the ins and outs of therapy and includes Dr. Life’s work within its research.  A bit lengthy, but excellent information.
