ABOUT OUR GUEST EXPERT:

Dr. Sarah Daccarett is dedicated to ensuring your symptoms are no longer mis-diagnosed or ignored.

Dr. Dacarrett says, “In my mid-thirties after the birth of my son, my hormone levels never recovered.

After trying every available product, I realized there were NO solutions specifically to meet the needs of younger women who want to feel young and vibrant again.

I invented the Inner Balance protocol and Oestra because I needed it. I also realized that I wasn't alone - that hormone levels decline drastically in our 30s - NOT when our period stops in our 50s like we have been told.

Women every day suffer from endometriosis, PCOS, postpartum depression, effects of birth control, hair loss, depression, fatigue, and a whole host of health problems due to low estrogen and progesterone.

They are mis-diagnosed, mis-treated, or blown off as "just a part of being a woman", "just a part of aging", "you're too young", "you are normal," or even worse "you're just crazy."

Meanwhile advancement in men's and transgender hormone replacement therapy is a decade ahead of women's. We think this is unacceptable, antiquated and marginalization of women.

Women no longer have to settle for "normal" but rather they can feel exceptional - always."
