HRT Virtual Conference

Summary

Our February 2024 HRT Symposium in Las Vegas was such a hit with member and practitioner attendees, we’re bringing back the same speakers and content for a LIVE, VIRTUAL edition! If you or your prescribers missed out on joining us earlier this year, here’s your chance to discover what all the buzz is about without having to leave home.

Delve into discussions on weight loss, menopause, the microbiome, insulin resistance, thyroid and adrenals, detoxification and more. Designed for practitioners and pharmacists, this engaging symposium offers comprehensive, evidence-based information on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) — focusing on treating the cause, not just the symptoms. Whether you’re new to HRT or looking to stay up to date on the latest advancements in personalized medicine, this symposium is tailor-made for you.

Our speaker lineup includes experts shaping the field of HRT. Hear from Bridget Briggs, MD, and Carrie Jones, ND, both new to the PCCA stage this year. Their areas of expertise will shed light on crucial interplays within the endocrine system. And don't miss the insights of Pamela W. Smith, MD, MPH, MS, a trailblazer in hormone therapy, discussing her latest research on women’s health. As always, you can expect PCCA clinical compounding pharmacists to provide valuable insight into hormones, patient cases and compounding options.
