What This Service Focuses On
Women’s Health & Hormone Optimization at TECM Health is designed to support women through every stage of life with a personalized, root-cause approach. This service focuses on hormone balance, thyroid health, and whole-body function—especially during perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause.
How We Build Your Plan
Comprehensive Evaluation
Your care begins with an in-depth assessment of your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and health goals, along with targeted hormone and thyroid evaluation when appropriate.
Individualized Approach
Dr. Teresita Barrantes does not follow a one-size-fits-all protocol. Each treatment plan is built specifically for you, recognizing that every woman’s physiology and experience is unique.
Hormone & Thyroid Optimization
Special focus is placed on identifying imbalances related to perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, hypothyroidism, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Root Cause Focus
We evaluate the many variables that influence women’s health—including stress, metabolism, nutrition, inflammation, and lifestyle factors—to create a comprehensive and effective plan.
Conditions We Commonly Help Address

Hormonal fluctuations can lead to irregular cycles, mood changes, sleep disturbances, and early metabolic changes.
Menopause & Post-Menopause
