I’m Dr. Anat Sapan, a board-certified OBGYN with a deep passion for helping women navigate health challenges, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. Having experienced menopause myself, I understand the physical and mental toll it can take. Like many women, I initially attributed my symptoms of brain fog, mood changes, and weight gain to the stress and disruptions brought on by COVID-19. However, as my symptoms worsened, I realized I needed a more effective solution.
Through my search for relief, I discovered the work of Dr. Daved Rosensweet, MD, who developed an innovative titration method for bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) using organic oil-based hormones. Within just one month of adopting this system, I experienced significant improvement, far beyond what conventional medicine had provided. Now, feeling better than ever, I am passionate about sharing this transformative approach with other women who may benefit from it.
My approach to BHRT is evidence-based, focusing on the latest research to offer safe, personalized care. I use compounded bio-identical hormones in organic oil bases, free from toxins and harmful additives, tailored to each woman’s unique needs. Hormone doses are titrated based on symptom relief, with testing to ensure precision. In addition to estrogen, I recognize the critical roles of progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA, incorporating them into treatment plans as necessary to optimize health and well-being.
For those looking for an informed perspective on estrogen and hormone therapy, I highly recommend "Estrogen Matters" by Dr. Avrum Bluming. His book challenges the misconceptions around estrogen, illustrating its importance beyond reproduction and its benefits for brain health, bone strength, cardiovascular health, and more. Dr. Bluming provides a thorough critique of the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study, which has created longstanding confusion about hormone therapy. I align with his evidence-based views, emphasizing the significant benefits of estrogen replacement therapy in reducing the risk of chronic diseases like osteoporosis, heart disease, and dementia, while also alleviating menopausal symptoms.
I am dedicated to offering you the highest level of care and support throughout your hormone replacement journey, helping you restore balance, improve well-being, and thrive during this transformative stage of life.
