Hi Dr. Jen, long time follower on twitter/reader and just subscribed, because I've been diagnosed with POI at age 39 after years of irregular periods and now no period for 4 months, plus having symptoms like hot flashes and fatigue. I was wondering if you have any posts on POI and best practices for medication/HRT. I started oestrogel and it helped relieve the symptoms almost immediately but don't know how to determine what the best dose might be, there's so much misinformation online. In the various online communities for POI, it seems a lot of doctors are not aware of how best to treat it and women seem to struggle to get adequately treated and it would be so helpful to be able to share your knowledge with them. I will of course talk with my prescribing doctor about my questions as well. Thank you for your expertise!

Dr Gunter, do you take new patients for your practice?
