QUESTION
Why are you referred to as the “Hormone Gal” at Town & Country Compounding Pharmacy?
ANSWER
I consider women’s health and hormones my passion. As a pharmacist, I understand hormone imbalances and related symptoms that occur as women approach menopause. And, as a female, I can relate and empathize with women about how disruptive symptoms can be. I enjoy sharing my knowledge about nutritional supplements, stress management, lifestyle changes, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), to help women maintain a good quality of life as they reach their menopausal years. I find it interesting and
rewarding to discuss bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) dosing and symptom management
with practitioners to help solve difficult patient problems.
QUESTION
What are some common questions you receive about women’s health?
ANSWER
Questions vary with each event but the most common are weight gain, sleep problems, irregular bleeding, and hot flashes and/or night sweats. I receive quite a few questions related to vaginal health; painful intercourse, vaginal dryness, and lack of libido. We discuss all of these and more during our Women, Wine, and Wellness Events.
QUESTION
What is a common misconception about menopausal symptoms?
ANSWER
I I think so many women are taught that menopause is only about losing your period or managing a few symptoms, but it’s really so much more than that. The list of symptoms vary but I try to educate women to understand that menopause is a decline in hormones and it affects their overall health from head to toe.
QUESTION
What are some other interesting topics that come up in the group at your Women, Wellness & Wine events?
ANSWER
We’ve covered a wide range of topics, including diet, sleep cycles, exercise, stress management, and the role of
supplements. Often, the conversation is shaped by the women in the room—their symptoms, health goals, and
personal experiences guide where the discussion goes. Some nights we dive deep into hormone health, other times we focus on lifestyle changes that support energy, mood, and overall well-being. No two sessions are ever the same, which is what keeps them engaging and meaningful.
QUESTION
As the main speaker at Town & Country Compounding’s Women, Wellness & Wine events, what’s it all about?
ANSWER
Several times a year from September through June, we host an in-person Women, Wellness & Wine event at our
Ramsey, NJ pharmacy from 6:30–8:30 pm. These relaxed, interactive sessions are a safe space to discuss women’s
health topics like hormone replacement, libido, and hot flashes—no lectures, just real conversations. Practitioners
often join in too! Unable to attend one of our sessions, gather a few friends and we will bring the event to you!
