The Approach

Over 100 symptoms. One root cause most doctors don't test for.

Menopause has over 100 documented symptoms — from hot flashes and insomnia to brain fog, joint pain, and anxiety. Yet the standard medical response is still a single TSH test, maybe an antidepressant, and "this is just part of aging."

At Mend, we treat women's hormonal health as a complete system: estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid, cortisol, and insulin — tested comprehensively, interpreted together, and managed as one coordinated protocol.

Full hormone panel, not just TSH
Bioidentical, never synthetic
Perimenopause through post-menopause
Metabolic + hormonal together

Core Services

Four Pillars of Women's Health

Each service is physician-managed, protocol-driven, and connected to the others. Your hormones, metabolism, and diagnostics are never treated in isolation.

01 — Hormone Optimization

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

BHRT uses hormones molecularly identical to what your body produces — estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA — compounded to your unique biology. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical formulations are personalized for your levels, your symptoms, and your stage of life.

Estradiol TherapyTransdermal, topical, or oral — dosed to your labs, not a standard template
Progesterone OptimizationMicronized bioidentical progesterone for sleep, mood, and uterine protection
Testosterone for WomenLow-dose testosterone for energy, libido, cognition, and muscle preservation
DHEA SupplementationAdrenal precursor support — systemic and vaginal formulations available

02 — Life-Stage Care

Perimenopause & Menopause Support

Perimenopause can start in your late 30s and last over a decade. During that window — and into post-menopause — declining estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone create cascading effects across sleep, cognition, metabolism, bone density, and cardiovascular health.

Symptom-Driven TreatmentHot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, brain fog, mood changes, vaginal dryness, low libido
Bone & Cardiovascular ProtectionEstrogen decline accelerates bone loss and cardiovascular risk — we monitor and intervene early
Cortisol & Adrenal SupportDUTCH testing to map cortisol rhythm and adrenal function
Longitudinal TrackingQuarterly labs and symptom reviews — your protocol evolves as your biology changes

03 — Metabolic Health

Medical Weight Loss & GLP-1 Therapy

Up to 70% of women gain weight during the menopause transition — driven by declining estrogen, reduced energy expenditure, and increased abdominal fat. GLP-1 medications are the most effective pharmacologic tool for menopausal weight management, and research shows they work even better combined with hormone therapy.

Semaglutide (compounded)GLP-1 receptor agonist for appetite regulation and metabolic reset
Tirzepatide (compounded)Dual GIP/GLP-1 action — equally effective across all reproductive stages
BHRT + GLP-1 Synergy ProtocolWomen on HT lost 35% more weight on semaglutide vs. those without (Mayo Clinic study)
Body Composition TrackingDEXA scans and metabolic testing — protecting lean mass while losing fat

04 — Thyroid Health

Thyroid & Metabolic Optimization

Thyroid dysfunction is the most misdiagnosed condition in women's health. A normal TSH doesn't mean your thyroid is optimized — it means it's not critically failing. We run the full panel and treat to symptom resolution, not just "normal range."

Comprehensive Thyroid PanelTSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, TPO antibodies, thyroglobulin antibodies
Thyroid Medication ManagementLevothyroxine, liothyronine (T3), compounded T3/T4, and natural desiccated thyroid
Hashimoto's & Autoimmune SupportAntibody monitoring, inflammation management, and root-cause nutritional interventions
Hormone-Thyroid IntegrationEstrogen affects thyroid binding globulin — we manage both together

Clinical Synergy

The Data Is Clear: BHRT + GLP-1 Work Better Together

A Mayo Clinic study found that postmenopausal women on hormone therapy lost significantly more weight with semaglutide than those on semaglutide alone — at every time point measured across 12 months.

The mechanism is powerful: hormone therapy improves sleep, mood, energy, and motivation to exercise — all of which amplify the metabolic effects of GLP-1 medications.

This is why Mend integrates these protocols rather than treating them as separate services.
