Worldhealth.net is now featured on Oprah.com as a resource for those interested in learning more about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT).  The link appears in a new section of Oprah Winfrey's website launched in conjunction with her recent show about Hormone Replacement Therapy for women.

"We're opening a national conversation about hormone replacement therapy," says Oprah. "If you're a woman who's planning to live past the age of 35, at some point you're going to face hormone imbalance," she says. "All women need to be armed with this information."

Worldhhealth.net is the website of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M). The site offers several resources:

The upcoming World Congress to be held in Orlando, April 23-25 will include a special workshop, “Putting it All Together, The Nuts and Bolts of Hormone Restoration in Men and Women” presented by distinguished obstetrician/gynecologist, Sangeeta Pati, M.D. who specializes in natural hormone replacement, anti-aging and holistic, preventative medicine.

Those interested in learning more or registering for the conference or this special workshop should call A4M:  1-888-997-0112.
