Women’s & Men’s Health and Prevention at The Churchill Center
- Bio-identical Hormone Optimization (BHRT) for men and women: research has proven that women who do not use BHRT are at a significantly higher risk for: osteoarthrosis, reproductive cancers and heart disease. The same is true for men but instead lowers the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and erectile dysfunction.
- Saliva hormone testing: measures intracellular stores of hormones, not just what is in the blood. The lab that we use has built-in cancer prevention ratios to assess your risk of breast/prostate cancer.
- We tell all women patients to do ultrasound and thermographic breast imaging instead of x-ray irradiation. We use a lab that has a special ultrasound machine from Canada that can visualize larger areas at a time. For men, we will get an MRI of the prostate before doing a prostate biopsy.
- We do an 80 marker women’s and men’s comprehensive blood lab panel that includes no less than 10 inflammatory markers, 7 thyroid labs, and all hormones including pregnenolone and IGF1 as well as many other markers for anti-aging and overall wellness! Other markers measured specific fatty acid ratios looking EPA vs Arachidonic Acid, which are major contributors to overall inflammation and disease. Many other markers in this blood lab panel are weighted more for preventing, detecting, and stopping unknown heart disease, stroke, and diabetes in Dr. Churchill’s most prevalent population: men and women between the ages of 40-70.
- Actively look for and eliminate food allergies and sensitivities, heavy metals, stealth mold, and viral infections that suppress your immune system can lead to active cancer throughout your life.
