No, only licensed medical doctors can prescribe bio–identical hormones. What I do for my patients, is analyze the results of the saliva tests, type up a report and explain the results to my patient. Then after discussing their options with my patients, I type up a letter with my recommendations regarding bio–identical hormones for them to take to their medical doctor in order to obtain a prescription. With their medical doctors permission, I help women to adjust their dosages if needed.
