With the demand for BHRT now far exceeding the supply of trained doctors, A4M is issuing a call to action to the nation's doctors to commence board certification studies at the 17th World Congress on Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine this spring in Orlando, Florida.

Interest in and awareness of Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy has skyrocketed among the public in recent weeks following the airing of two back-to-back Oprah shows on the subject.

As renowned hormone restoration expert and lecturer Dr. Sangeeta Pati recently commented, "Oprah has provided the perfect platform for a real discussion on a hotly debated and critically important topic for aging America, ‘Bio-identical Hormones'."

Bio-identical  hormones are available in a wide variety of FDA-approved delivery systems, but special training on individualized treatment of patients suffering symptoms of hormonal imbalance is needed.

Such training is available through the A4M and its Board Certification and a variety of the Academy's  workshops focusing on hormone restoration. 

With the demand for BHRT now far exceeding the supply of trained doctors,  A4M is issuing a call to action to the nation's doctors to commence board certification studies at the 17th World Congress on Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine this spring in Orlando, Florida.

Patrick Savage, president of BodyLogicMD, an organization that helps patients seeking BHRT find qualified doctors has said,  "We are faced with a great problem. Before Oprah, our doctors were scheduling appointments 4-5 weeks out, post Oprah, many of the physicians we work with only have open appointments 9-12 weeks out. We are filling our doctors' schedules with patients at a faster pace than they can keep up with".

As the general public ages and becomes more aware of the differences between E1 type estrogen that has been associated in health risks for women in clinical studies, and Bio-identical E2 and E3 estrogen which has been shown to actually have protective effects, the demand for such treatment will only grow.

For Doctors interested in boosting their practice, the opportunities in this growing field of medicine are significant.

Those interested in learning more about the A4M, bio-identical hormone replacement and  the upcoming 17th World Congress on Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine are encouraged to contact A4M by calling, 1 (888)-997-0112.
