- Testosterone optimization
Your patients are already asking about hormone therapy.
The question is whether you're ready with an answer built on real protocol experience — not a five-minute search between appointments. This is the weekend where you get ready.
The clinical case
Hormone decline is a population-scale clinical problem, and most clinicians were never trained for it.
1.3M
U.S. women enter menopause every year
7.4 yrs
median duration of vasomotor symptoms
39%
of men 45+ in primary care meet criteria for low testosterone
6.8%
of residents surveyed felt prepared to manage menopausal patients
Sources: StatPearls (NLM); SWAN study of vasomotor symptom duration; PMC — diagnosing and managing low serum testosterone; Kling et al., Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
For many patients, pharmacotherapy is the first-line response to these symptoms. Hormone optimization, paired with nutrition, targeted supplementation, and exercise, gives clinicians another lever to address the underlying physiology.
The gap
Most clinical training never covered this. Your patients don’t wait for it.
Patients bring up fatigue, mood changes, weight shifts, and sexual health long before they bring up hormones directly. If you’re not the one connecting those dots, they’ll find someone else who will — a wellness clinic, a med spa, a stranger online.
-
What patients are doing
Searching symptoms at midnight, comparing notes with friends already on BHRT, and walking into appointments with more hormone literacy than the clinicians treating them.
-
What most training covers
A single lecture, if any, buried inside a broader endocrinology unit — built for boards, not for the protocol decisions you actually have to make with a real patient in front of you.
-
The risk of waiting
Every season you're not confidently fluent in BHRT is a season your patients look elsewhere, and a season a preventable complication goes unaddressed on your watch.
-
The alternative
Three days with clinicians solving the same cases you are, working through real protocols rather than survey lectures.
Why attend
What you walk away able to do — protocols you can actually use on Monday morning.
This isn't a survey course. Every session is built around a decision you'll need to make in practice — not just a concept to recognize on a test.
-
Evaluate a patient for BHRT candidacy
Work through the lab panels, history-taking, and risk screening you need before any protocol conversation starts.
-
Construct and justify an individualized regimen
Move from general principles to a specific, individualized plan — and be able to explain your reasoning to the patient, and to yourself, with confidence.
-
Recognize when BHRT isn't the answer
Spot the cases where hormone therapy carries more risk than benefit, and know what to offer instead.
-
Monitor and adjust over time
Set a follow-up rhythm, know which markers to track, and catch complications early instead of after the fact.
-
Talk to patients in language they trust
Leave with the framing that turns a skeptical or over-informed patient into one who trusts your judgment.
-
Situate compounded preparations accurately
Understand what is FDA-approved, what is compounded, where the evidence differs, and how to document the distinction.
Who should attend
You won’t be the only one in the room figuring this out.
The room is clinicians treating the same patients you are, from practices that look something like yours.
Physicians & OB-GYNs
Building BHRT into an existing practice without adding chaos to your schedule.
Nurse practitioners & PAs
Sharpening prescribing confidence and knowing exactly when to escalate a case.
Functional & integrative clinicians
Grounding an existing wellness practice in protocols that hold up to scrutiny.
Women's health specialists
Meeting a demand for menopause and perimenopause care that's outpacing supply.
New to hormone therapy
Getting a real foundation instead of piecing one together from webinars.
Learn from clinicians in the trenches.
Faculty
Speaker lineup announced soon
Three days, structured around decisions — not lectures.
A working agenda. Final session titles are confirmed closer to the event.
Day one
Foundations & candidacy
Hormone physiology as it relates to aging, the 2025 and 2026 FDA labeling changes and what they mean for candidacy, screening protocols and building your first patient workup.
Day two
Protocols & case work
Small-group case sessions covering dosing, delivery methods, and individualized treatment planning for women and men.
Day three
Safety, monitoring & the patient conversation
Long-term monitoring, complication management, and communicating protocols in a way patients actually trust.
