Have you looked for a private pay functional medicine or board certified integrative medicine physician? (don’t feel you have to answer this question here.). Bio identical hormones are often one of their specialties . The downside is the expense.

Unfortunately, money is an issue but when you feel badly sometimes you find a way. I didn't take health insurance this year because of the expense and knowledge that I wasn't getting what I was paying for anyway. I just remember my gynecologist saying that no doctor in their right mind would prescribe hormone therapy to me because my breast cancer was ER PR positive. But then she wanted to put me on a statin because my cholesterol was too high for her liking. I'm a firm believer that cholesterol is your friend.
