Can anyone recommend someone in London who works with bio identical hormones? I know of Marion GLuckman, Nick Panay and JOhn Studd but surely there must be others. Thanks

Do you mean body-identical or do you mean compounded (made for the person only in a private pharmacy?)

Body-identical HRT is the norm and available from your GP. Just make sure you get something that is estradiol and not conjugated estrogen, as well as micronised progesterone.

Panay and Studd do not do 'compounded' if that is what you're looking for- these products are not licensed due to safety issues.

yes, body identical. I was under the impression that not all NHS gps prescribe or even know about these though there is obviously a lot of misinformation circulating...
I also though that the testosterone gel was not available on NHS but perhaps that is not the case?
Thanks

The only non body identical estrogen is those that start with Pre....

If you want natural progesterone the only option is Utrogestan.

All available from GP.

Have a read of the Menopause Matters site under the menu Treatments/ HRT/ Types for peri and post meno.
