CHAPTER 1

Educate, Evaluate and Expand

Everywhere you turn these days you hear and see more and more news and advertising about Hormone Replacement Therapies (HRTs). From large pharmaceuticals marketing the latest synthetic low testosterone replacement roll-on to celebrities extolling the virtues of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, (BHRT) as a virtual fountain of youth.

The truth is there are a lot of mistruths about the role bioidentical hormones can have in the cure of several severe symptoms; the overall wellbeing of your patients and safety concerns about their use.

This book is to serve as a guide to understanding the role hormones have in assessing symptoms that may be aggravated by hormonal imbalances or deficiencies. The last half of this book contains a clinical reference guide to help healthcare practitioners check for hormonal imbalances and recommend dosing of bioidentical hormones in the treatment of their patients.

The goals of this book are to:

1. Educate healthcare professionals about the role of hormones in the wellness of their patients.

2. Educate the public of the significant role hormonal imbalances can play in their overall wellness.

3. Provide the necessary tools to determine if bioidentical hormone replacement therapies are appropriate for your patients.

4. Help expand healthcare practices through referrals by happy, healthy patients and bioidentical hormone replacement therapies that improve patient lives while making sound business sense to your practice.

The majority of the content in this book is taken directly from lectures and talks that compounding pharmacist and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy expert, Rudy Dragone has given to doctors, fire departments, police departments and thousands of others across the United States and around the globe.

Rudy had worked for years with Dr. William R. Lee, an internationally acknowledged pioneer in the study and use of hormone replacement therapy for women. Together, they were instrumental in the educating thousands of healthcare professionals about the role of hormones and the use of BHRT in healthcare. The fire department in Phoenix Arizona was so impressed; they approved the use and coverage of BHRT in the healthcare of their employees.

The roll that bioidentical hormone replacement therapy has in overall wellbeing for millions of people is simply remarkable.

Background Experience

In life, we have to take care of ourselves. Sometimes in helping others, we neglect what's important in our own lives. If you've ever flown, you've heard the flight attendant spiel about putting on your own oxygen mask first before helping others. Well, this is what I'm trying to help you to do in this book. I want you to help yourself be as healthy and complete as you can be and I'm going to show you some ways to work towards this so that you can help everybody else in your family feel and live a lot better too.

My name is Rudy Dragone and I am a compounding pharmacist. I'll give you a little background of who I am so that when listen to me you start saying to yourself, "Do I want to believe this guy or not?" You will at least have some background knowledge of who I am.

I am a pharmacist. That's all I ever wanted to be. When I was nine years old; my parents put me in a pharmacy in the Bronx. They said this is where we want you to be. We want you off the streets, away from the gangs and everything else that goes with it. So by the time I was 17 I was enrolled in pharmacy school and by the time I was 21, I was the youngest pharmacist in New York City.

When I was at the pharmacy in New York, I used to look up to this one person that had 5 pharmacies in the same neighborhood. I said to myself, "If I ever could have 5 stores, I would be somebody." By 1988, I had ten stores. Then, I sold everything I owned in New York and came to Arizona to retire.

But I couldn't retire from the desire to keep helping people so I bought another pharmacy in Carefree, Arizona just to keep my hands in it and make a positive impact in the wellbeing of my fellow man. It was during this time I met a true pioneer in development of hormone replacement therapies who had been working in the hormone replacement field for about 10 years, Dr. William Lee. Dr. Lee also had a significant role in developing a health program for the Phoenix Fire Department.

Hormones

Natural hormones, it's almost a miracle so few people know so little about them. Why don't more people know more about them? It cannot be patented. Not like Viagra or anything you see on television these days. Natural hormones cannot be patented because they occur naturally in nature. They were found in the 1930s. Because they cannot be patented none of the drug companies make them because they can't make the big money off of them. In fact, they actually take the same identical hormones that should be in your body and change them so they can patent them, package it and sell it.

We are totally against that. We are saying, "This is what God gave you, this is what Mother Nature gave you, and we want to give you the identical hormone that is in your body to begin with to cure your symptoms."

It just makes plain sense doesn't it? Replace the natural hormones that you lose through the years with the same bioidentical hormones that are already found in your body.

Suzanne Sommers has been advocating the use of bioidentical hormones for some time now. More recently Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Oz have been touting the virtues of bioidentical hormones and keeping hormonal balance as a key to good health and wellbeing. So we have a good strong people as our advocate.

Today, I still compound bioidentical hormones specifically tailored to the unique hormonal needs of each and every patient for doctors around the country and internationally. I get calls all day long from doctors and healthcare provider about solutions to vexing medical problems that are easily solved through the proper use of BHRTs.

The words "proper use of BHRTs" is critical here because hormone replacement therapy, whether it is through synthetics or...
