Hi Linda,
A TMA is a Tissue Mineral Analyses done with hair. The report is a real eye opener and great for reference material too. You can order the kit thru Uni Key Health.

I am the poster child for everything that can go wrong. I have hair loss, low libido,hyptetention and to top matters all off i found out a year ago I am type 2 diebetic. I exersise 1 hour a day. I am 50 years old and stressed awhole bunch I am 70lbs over weight and have trouble loosing weight I eat about 700 cals. a day. I tryed the fat flush diet last year and had very little success. I’m at a loss as what to do. My doctor says to eat less and Exersise, exersis, exercise. It would be a great thing if I had the time but I have a husband, an 8 year old son, and just got coustody of my 2 year old granddaughter. My Dr. says part of my problem is that I had my son an 41 years old and that slowed my motabolisim way down. I thought you might have some advice for me. Thank you for your time.

Thanks, everyone. Bio-identical hormone treatment can be great for many women; others, not so. This testosterone creme is very effective – sometimes less is more, however…… I wish one treatment worked for all. Sometimes it is trial and error but luckily I have a base of thousands of women and have some idea of what works for most Thanks for all of your support.

How do you feel about bio-identical hormone treatment through your doctor? Recently found a D.O. who has been on this for about 18 years. Any thoughts? By the way, love your articles. They are quite enlightening! Thank you for taking the time to do that!

Maria,
You may want to check out how your thyroid is performing. Low thyroid function has hair loss as a symptom.

I have hair loss and have been taking the Unikey biotin for several years and still find that the growth is not keeping up with the loss. Any recommendations?
The hot times testerone cream if I take will it cause more facial hair to appear or more head hair loss?

Love the idea of kissing to boost testosterone, but somehow that was never quite enough, once I hit my 50s!
When I commuted from Maine to Boston, I’d drive in at least once a week to boost my testosterone. That did wonders for my sex life (at least on the weekends when I had time to think about something other than work)!
I’ve read, though, that high achieving women expend more testosterone. But somehow I still believe that having a job you love and that fulfills you is useful as taking synthetic hormones or (god forbid) Viagra (didn’t Kissinger say something along those lines? That dirty old man!)

It seemed that my once-healthy libido sank like a stone in water last spring. An alternative doctor took thorough hormone levels–and I didn’t have much of anything left! (I’m 54.) I’m using bioidenticals now (an estrogen cream, testosterone cream, and oral progesterone — among other things) and feeling much better. More energetic, with no vaginal dryness and a restored libido. The only “negative” is I will have my period as long as I’m using the estrogen. (And I trust what I’m reading about bioidentical estrogen not increasing my cancer risk.)

Cathy,
Thanks for your help but my understanding is that 1 mg (or milligram) is equal to 1000 mcg (or micrograms). So, for example, 5 mg = 5000 mcg, rather trhan 500 mcg. I don’t think that biotin is sold this high, so the best bet is still the UNI KEY 5 mg(5,000 mcgs) at one dose, I would think:) Anyways, it really works for hair.
