May was all about Women’s Health, but June is all about the MEN you love...

It's Men’s Health Month!

This year’s theme — “Partners in Care: For Better Lifespans Across the Lifespan” — reminds us that better health starts with support, education, and proactive care.

If the men in your life have been feeling more tired, less motivated, struggling with sleep, weight gain, low libido, or brain fog, it may not be “just getting older.”

Hormone changes during midlife can affect how men feel physically and mentally — and personalized BHRT may help support their overall well-being (just like it can for women).

Encourage your man to his healthcare provider about whether hormone testing and customized therapies may be right for him.

Got good sleep? If you’re a woman in midlife, decent sleep may be an elusive dream. If you’re dealing with insomnia, night sweats, or waking up partway through the night, it’s hard to get the recommended 7 to 8 hours of quality shuteye.

A good night’s sleep promotes physical and emotional wellness, so finding ways to improve your slumber is essential, especially during perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause.

If you're in midlife and searching for ways to soothe achy joints and erase wrinkles and age spots, you’re not alone. Many women choose a cosmetic approach to aging gracefully.

While there’s no magic wand that waves away wrinkles, studies indicate that replenishing hormones may help improve skin health and decrease the inflammation that leads to joint pain. Addressing aging concerns from the inside out may be just what your body needs.

Ask your doctor about compounded bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Your health practitioner works with the expert team at Belmar Pharmacy to prescribe BHRT dosage forms and strengths customized just for you.

For years, many providers have been reluctant to prescribe estrogen for their perimenopausal and menopausal patients. Then, last November, the FDA recommended removal of the black box warning from many forms of estrogen used as hormone replacement therapy.

This is good news for women and their health care teams! Restoring estrogen may not only help address common symptoms like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and increased UTIs, but may also help protect a woman’s long-term wellness—her brain, heart, and bones.

At Belmar Pharmacy, we formulate compounded bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) in the form and dosage that's personalized for your needs, based on your provider’s prescription.

May 25th is World Thyroid Day—during Women’s Health Month. And they’re connected, because thyroid disease is a women’s issue. Women are 5 to 8 times more likely than men to develop thyroid disorders.

Problems can occur when the thyroid gland produces too much hormone (hyperthyroidism) or too little hormone (hypothyroidism). If you have hypothyroidism, you may have symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and weight gain.

Your doctor may prescribe compounded thyroid medication based on your individual needs.

Feeling moody, exhausted, and losing your hair? Is it perimenopause? Or do you have thyroid disease?

Both can affect women, and it may be hard to tell which hormonal condition (or both) is causing the symptoms. That’s why seeing your doctor for a diagnosis is critical.

If you have hypothyroidism, your doctor may prescribe compounded thyroid medication. And during perimenopause, compounded bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may optimize your hormones and help alleviate your symptoms.
