Is hormone therapy just about boosting testosterone? Not even close. In this premiere episode of Proactive Health Care with Excel Medical Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Peter Fotinos—our National Medical Director and one of the country’s leading experts in bioidentical hormone therapy—to uncover the real story behind testosterone, estrogen, and everything in between.
We break down the myths that keep men from getting the care they need, talk about the science that’s often misunderstood, and explain why estrogen is just as important for men as testosterone. If you’ve ever been told that hormones are dangerous or that therapy is just for bodybuilders, this is the conversation that flips the script.
