Hi Rob,

    I am a health oriented individual now 65 years old. For many years I have taken vitamins, exercised often and watched my diet. I stopped smoking after 30 years four years ago. In recent years I have focused more on health. For several years I have been taking care of my Mother. I see her every day. I have personally seen the ravages of age in assisted living facilities and now a nursing home. I became a true believer that health is wealth as we age. This experience peaked my interest in hormone replacement which I had been studying for several years. After interviewing three hormone replacement specialists I decided to work with Dr. Carlson in Sarasota, Fl.

    I have now been on his prescribed hormone replacement therapy for 3 months. The change in me is nothing less than remarkable. I sleep better; have more energy; am more mentally alert and focused; have a great sex drive and libido; my stamina has improved dramatically; my lung capacity has gotten better; I look younger; my skin tone is noticeably better; I have fewer facial wrinkles; age spots on my hands have disappeared, my hair has become thicker and healthier looking; I lost my belly fat completely; my body has become leaner and more muscular; my hearing has improved; I have even sustained energy, never feeling down during the day or evening; I drink less coffee; I feel better and because of that have an even more calm, rational and happy life.

    My wife is pr-menopausal and had all of the symptoms of that disorder. She is a successful Mother and real estate agent, a college athlete of 50 in perfect shape. Suddenly she found herself depressed, tired, lacking in sex drive feeling weak. Our love life was shot. It took everything she had - and she is an emotional and physical rock - to get through the day. The doctors did nothing to help with all sorts of meds. I took her to see Dr. Carlson. Two months later she is her old self again barreling through every sort of problem of any kind like a whirlwind, swimming an hour a day, smashing tennis balls past me and finally closing some real estate deals! Our sex life has got to be some kind of a record and we are happy as two little peas in a pod.

    I hate to sound like some kind of promoter or advertiser. I'm not. I am just writing what has actually happened to us.
