Comprehensive Evaluation
Menopause care begins with time and careful listening.
At Santé, your consultation is not rushed. We review your history, current symptoms, metabolic profile, and long-term health goals before discussing any treatment plan.
The objective is clarity. Not assumptions.
In select cases, advanced genetic insight testing may be used to better understand metabolic, inflammatory, and cardiovascular patterns that influence midlife hormone health. When clinically appropriate, these insights help guide personalized prevention and treatment strategies.
Treatment Guided by Your Evaluation
After a thorough evaluation, treatment is tailored to your physiology, symptoms, and long-term goals.
For many women, appropriately prescribed and monitored hormone therapy significantly improves quality of life. When indicated, we provide evidence-based hormone therapy customized to your clinical profile.
Non-hormonal strategies are available when appropriate. Care is individualized and guided by data, not trends.
