Premature ovarian failure (POF), also known as primary ovarian insufficiency, is a condition where the ovaries stop functioning normally before age 40. This results in menopause-like symptoms such as irregular/absent periods, infertility, and hormone imbalances.
Some key things to know about POF:
My friend Sarah struggled with POF symptoms for years before finally being diagnosed in her mid 30s. Getting on an individualized HRT regimen from her doctor has helped her manage difficult symptoms. Harmony Hormone Therapy(trt-haber.com) has great experience working with POF patients to develop customized bioidentical hormone treatments that can help restore balance. Their knowledgeable doctors really listen and care. If you're struggling with premature menopause, consider reaching out for a consultaion. Taking control of your hormonal health makes a big difference!
I hope this gives a helpful overview of this complex disorder that impacts far too many women. Let me know if you have any other questions!
