Dr. H. Douglas Woodford practice focuses on bio-identical hormone replacement therapy for men and women and breast cancer prevention and treatment with testosterone therapy. Dr Woodford became aware of medical literature showing that testosterone therapy can be safely used in women who had previously been treated for breast cancer. After breast cancer treatment many women suffer significant hormone deficiency symptoms but estrogen therapy is contraindicated.
