Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy Testimonials
"I had been on Hormone Replacement Therapy for 14 years. I
was afraid of what it was doing to me, but I didn’t really know
that there was anything safe out there. Dr. Jones had me tested
and found out that I was low in 4 out of the 5 major hormones. I
was relieved when he told me that, because I thought I was going
crazy. Talk about “hormonal” – I was so emotional all the time.
Six weeks after I was put on the Bio-Identical hormones, I felt
like I was a totally different person. I felt level. I felt
stable."
Lisa T. Salt Lake City, Utah.
"I’m 48 years old and I never wanted to take any hormones
because of everything I had heard the last few years. Then I
started having hot flashes every night and sometimes during the
day - gradually at first - but then they became regular. Then I
started gaining weight around the middle. I’ve never had to
worry about that before. My older sister told me I was going
into “the challenge,” and that I needed some hormones.
I started asking around and was referred to Dr. Jones. He found
out that I was low in estrogen and progesterone. In less than
one week on the new kind of healthy hormones-no more hot
flashes! Even my husband has commented that I don’t seem to get
the PMS that I used to have. It was so simple!"
Terri N. Salt Lake City, Utah.
"My biggest complaint was that I was always tried. Even if I
slept 10 hours the night before. I just was dragging all day. My
doctor put me on thyroid medicine many years ago-when I was
about 28. After talking with Dr. Jones, I decided to have myself
tested, and sure enough, my thyroid was low. I had gained almost
30 lbs. over the last two years. Dr. Jones changed my thyroid to
the natural kind and wow! What a difference the right kind made.
My energy levels are way up, and now I love to exercise. I can’t
say enough for the great changes I’ve felt."
Nikki S. Twin Falls, Idaho
"My aunt told me about Genesys Medical Institute. She nagged me
long enough to have me make an appointment with Dr. Jones. Next
year I turn 40, and I was already considering HRT. I’m so glad I
found out about the Bio-Identical, natural hormones. My OB/GYN
wanted me to go on Premarin about 5 years ago. Knowing what I
know now, there is no way I’d ever take that stuff. Since taking
the right hormones, I have felt so much better than my GP has
taken me off my Prozac."
Nora P. Sandy, Utah
"This has been life-changing for me. I’m 22 years old. I had no
energy. I was depressed. I had terrible PMS. I was gaining
weight and I didn’t really care anymore. My husband and my mom
went in with me to see Dr. Jones. After the tests came back, I
was really relived to see that it wasn’t all in my head. My
hormones were so low and out of balance that I could barely
function. I’ve been on the bio-identicals now for almost 6
months. At first the changes were slow. Pretty soon I saw my
moods improving—probably because I had more energy. I can truly
say that I am not even the same person now."
Jennifer T. Bountiful, Utah
"8 years ago my cholesterol was at 380. By taking Lipitor they
got it down to 260, which was still way too high, plus all the
bad side effects. Dr. Jones told me that high cholesterol almost
always was a sign of low thyroid. We tested my thyroid and I was
very low…and tired all the time. After 3 months on the natural
hormones, my cholesterol is now 160, without Lipitor! I am so
pleased with the outcome, and my energy levels are up, too."
Peggy L. Salt Lake City, Utah
"Like it or not, menopause hit me like a ton of bricks. Even
though I’m a nurse, I didn’t really expect it to be that bad. I
gained weight. My bladder started leaking every time I coughed
or sneezed. I was tired all the time. My sex drive was gone
completely. I had fluid retention, hot flashes, and I was a
witch all the time. I had read Suzanne Sommer’s book called “The
Sexy Years” and that was exactly what I was going through. I
talked to the doctor that I work for and I was so upset because
he wouldn’t even consider letting me try the bio-identical
hormone therapy. He said there was nothing wrong with Premarin,
which I knew wasn’t true.
I started calling all over to find a doctor that knew about the
new type of healthy hormone therapy. I was finally referred to
Genesys Medical Institute. Then I got a real education. Dr.
Jones sat down with me and explained everything about the way
low hormone levels could affect just about everything I was
going through. I couldn’t believe I’m a nurse and I didn’t know
half of what I know now about the importance of keeping my
hormone levels up if I want to feel good for the rest of my
life. I tell everyone now!”
M. Cook. Draper, Utah
"I’m a 58 year-old dentist. I have been active all my life.
About 4 years ago my wife accused me of being no fun anymore.
She said I was a “couch potato”. I was. I was so tired all the
time. I had lost the passion I once had for my profession, even
though I kept at it. My drive was gone. I wasn’t the typical
aggressive guy I had always been. I felt like my battery was
totally drained. My wife attended a lecture that Dr. Robert
Jones gave about hormone therapy. She came home that night and
told me that she was going to make an appointment for me. I
said, “No way.” She’s very persistent, and soon I was visiting
with Dr. Jones.
The testing showed that I was quite low in thyroid, and
extremely low in testosterone. After 6 months of hormone
therapy, I’m back on top of my game! What a difference the
hormones make. Personally, I think any man over 50 who is
wearing down should get checked out for low hormone levels. I
sent my younger brother in and he was low too. My partner at the
clinic asked me about it, and I bet him $10 that his hormones
were low. They were, and now he’s a believer, too."
Dr. Jay N. Salt Lake City, Utah
"I’m a personal trainer. I see so many women who diet all the
time and they work out 6 times a week - and they just don’t make
any progress. They don’t lose weight no matter how hard they
try. It’s very frustrating for me, because my job is to get
those pounds and inches off them. I have referred many of my
clients to Dr. Jones for the natural hormone therapy, and they
always come back so excited after having their hormones tested.
I have observed that after we get their thyroid up, then the
dieting and exercise pays of big-time. The testosterone helps
get rid of the flabbiness much quicker. They also have more
energy to exercise when the hormones are balanced."
S. Talbot, Sandy, Utah
"What a difference hormones make! I haven’t done the menopause
thing yet, but I know it’s coming soon. My PMS was so bad, I was
scary! Little did I know that my progesterone was so low. I had
used the creams from the health food store, but they were
apparently much too weak for my low levels. After two months on
the bio-identical progesterone, I barely even knew I was
pre-menstrual. I’m not on such an emotional roller-coaster now."
Marie F. Provo, Utah
"I’m 56 years old and my hormones were a mess. I had taken HRT
for almost 10 years because my doctor said it would prevent
cancer, heart disease and many other things. My sister then told
me that the old HRT could actually be harmful. I got off them
and went on the bio-identical hormones. Now I don’t worry about
the side effects at all because they are all natural. My energy
levels are much higher, and my incontinence is gone altogether.
It’s nice that the natural hormones are so much cheaper, too."
M. Decker, Las Vegas, Nevada
"Who would have thought that I could have thought that I could
have hormone problems? Here I am 36 years old, mother of three
beautiful little children, and yet I couldn’t cope with life. I
had been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but none of
the doctors could tell me what caused it. I was dragging all the
time. I was so stressed out and couldn’t keep up with anything.
I was seeing a therapist who referred me to Dr. Jones to have my
hormones evaluated. I was amazed when all the tests came back.
Finally somebody could give me a reason for how I was feeling.
My thyroid was extremely low. Funny thing is, I had it checked
before and they told me it was okay. But they hadn’t checked the
right things. Also I had a problem with my progesterone levels,
which was why I was so emotionally drained all the time. After
about 6 months on the right amount of natural hormones. I was so
much better. I still had a long way to go, but I could see light
at the end of the tunnel. It’s all so different now.”
Marilyn S. Ogden, Utah
"Running a busy law practice is very demanding. I had done well
for years. Then gradually I felt myself not caring as much. My
wife told me I was grumpy all the time. I had always loved
running - I even ran a marathon. But over about a two year
period I lost my endurance. I felt pretty burned out about
everything. I had no enthusiasm for anything. Dr. Jones is a
personal friend of mine, and I mentioned it to him one day. He
told me I was going through something called ‘andropause’—or
male menopause. So we had me tested and it said I had only a
small amount of testosterone. So he put me on the natural,
bio-identical testosterone. It took a while to find the right
dose, but when we did, my endurance returned. I hadn’t rally
realized that I had turned into a grumpy old man that didn’t
want to do anything but watch sports on TV. Now the zest for
living has returned.”
Paul H. Riverton, Utah.
“I’d tell anyone about my experience with natural hormone
therapy. It has made such a huge difference in my life of my
daughters. I was really skeptical at first, especially since I
asked my family doctor about the Bio-Identical hormones and he
had never even heard of them. So I looked them up on the
Internet and found out tons. I didn’t believe in using drugs to
cure anything. But I read that these new hormones are not good
drugs. It was at that point that I decided to try them. I felt
so good after 6 months that I sent both of my adult daughters in
for testing. Now they’re telling all their friends. I’m a
believer!”
Nancy A. Park City, Utah
“Fantastic. That’s how I would describe it. I was on Prempro for
years. Then I saw on the news all about how those hormones were
harmful for women. I talked to my pharmacist about the
alternatives and he gave me Dr. Jones’ number. The rest is
history.”
S. Halling Salt Lake City, Utah
“My doctor told me I was in ‘peri-menopause’ at age 51. I was
having irregular periods, mood swings, loss of sex drive and
fatigue. I had also put on about 10 pounds that I could not seem
to lose. After a lot investigation, and reading the book by
Suzanne Sommers, I decided to look for someone who could help me
with the new bio-identical hormone therapy. I was referred to
Dr. Robert Jones at Genesys Medical Institute. I can’t say
enough about what I learned and experienced by going on the
“healthy hormones” as I call them.
I would say that every one of my problems has gone away after
taking the hormones. I really didn’t know that hormonal
imbalances could affect so many areas of my life. I don’t even
have the ‘brain fog’ anymore. But probably the biggest thing
that I have seen over the last few months is the overall
increase in my energy levels. I had tried vitamins, herbs,
exercise (which exhausted me!) yoga—you name it. Little did I
know that it was simple matter of low hormone levels. Dr. Jones
said he was going to keep me at about a 40-year-old level of
hormones. I’m loving that!”
Linda K. Layton, Utah
“I came in for weight loss and found out my hormones were as low
as they could go. I was tired, fatigued, and always had a
headache. So I went on Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement of
testosterone, progesterone, iron, and DHEA and Armor thyroid.
After I stopped taking the synthetic hormones I noticed I was
feeling better but still had headaches and fatigue. I have been
on the Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy for 1 week and I feel
great! I sleep better and longer and I don’t have headaches
anymore and the fatigue gets less and less every day. I can get
all my housework done. I feel so much better about myself. I am
now going to do the HCG for weight loss and anti-aging effects.
I have already lost 6 lbs. since starting the hormones. I plan
on being on the hormones as long as I need them. I recommend
this to everyone I meet!”
D. Walker Salt Lake City, Utah
“I was experiencing exhaustion, depression and hair loss. After
2 days on progesterone was enough improved, I felt giddy. My
only hope was that it would stay and it has. My energy levels
are way up. I also tried the HCG protocol and am very happy with
the results. Although I am not quite where I want to be yet, it
has put me a lot closer to my goal. Because I have energy and I
am no longer walking around in a mental fog, my quality of life
is greatly improved. It has me a lot stronger person, and
although I am a people pleaser, I don’t feel so guilty about
saying “no”. I also sleep so well at night that my teenagers are
commenting they can have their late night parties and I don’t
get up and get after them.”
Janice C. Riverton, Utah
“I came to Genesys Medical Institute for the HCG weight loss
program. After the program I found out that my hormones were off
and I could not lose weight because of my depression medication.
I have been very please with Genesys Medical because now I feel
great. I have more energy, a better attitude and much happier.”
C. Holt South Jordan, Utah.
