Every year countless California women google "CA menopause doctor", "hormone replacement therapy (HRT) specialist CA", and "holistic fat loss center" because they’re frustrated with intense night sweating, unexpected irritability, stubborn belly fat, mental cloudiness, broken sleep, and discomfort during intimacy that no one seems to fix. Most doctors simply say "this happens with age just live with it," but that’s old-fashioned thinking. You deserve proper support and lasting relief. My name is Dr. Uzma, and at Prime Health Clinic I’ve spent the last 15 years helping women of all ages across Northern California, Walnut Creek, San Francisco, Southern California, San Diego, and the all of California restore their energy by using custom plans rather than guessing games or generic treatments.
Understanding Why Choosing the Most Qualified Menopause Care Provider in California Actually Matters
When menopause symptoms are left untreated or handled incorrectly, women face elevated risks of heart disease (now the number one cause of death for women), weakening of bones, mental health struggles, sudden weight increase, and insulin resistance. A true menopause specialist doesn’t just address night sweats in separation they analyze your hormonal balance, emotional wellbeing, energy balance, sleep, daily stress, and lifestyle to create a personalized plan that restores your strength and protects your long-term health.
Why Choose a Board-Certified Menopause & Hormone Specialist Better?
I am double board-certified in Psychiatry & Neurology and metabolic medicine, an hormone replacement therapy (HRT) specialist CA proud affiliate member of the North American Menopause Society (NAMS), and the author of the scientific article "Mood Disorder or Menopause". I completed my psychiatry residency at UCLA-Kern and have been a keynote speaker at UCLA professional conferences and APPNA conventions. This powerful combination of mental health expertise and specialized menopause education allows me to manage the mental and physical sides of menopause at the same stage, something a small number of specialists in the state of California can deliver.
Professional Hormone Therapy in Southern California Overseen with Safety Standards
Today’s HRT is far different from the initial WHI findings that scared many women, and when used by an trained menopause specialist with established options (patches, gels, creams, or pellets) at the appropriate low dose and carefully followed with labs and follow-up, HRT can be safe and often dramatically helpful. For women who begin HRT within 10 years of menopause or before age 60, the balance of benefits to risks is better randomized and pooled analyses show reductions in cardiovascular events, fractures, and all-cause mortality in that group while HRT also reliably resolves vasomotor symptoms, helps sleep, stabilizes mood, improves sexual function, and assists metabolic symptoms. That said, HRT is not risk free choice of drug, route (oral vs transdermal), and progestogen type matters for breast and clot risk, and treatment must be tailored with shared decision making, ongoing monitoring, and the option to adjust or stop therapy as needed. If hot flashes, sleep problems, or mood issues are severe, a specialist can design a personalized plan combining HRT (when appropriate) with lifestyle, sleep, metabolic, and mental health strategies to restore energy and protect long term health.

Expert Natural Weight Loss Specialist for Menopause Belly Fat in Southern California
Midlife menopause weight gain isn’t about self-control it’s driven by internal changes. As estrogen declines, cortisol rises, insulin resistance develops, metabolic hormones decline, and rest becomes fragmented, your body receives powerful survival signals that tell it to store fat around the middle. This is exactly why normal weight loss plans stop working during the menopausal transition and full late reproductive transition, because your body is no longer responding to food and exercise the way it did in your 20s or 30s, and instead operates in a hormone-driven preservation state designed to keep you safe during times of internal hormonal change.
At Prime Health MD, we offer two options so you can choose what aligns most for you and your body: Metabolic Weight Loss (medication-free, no weight loss drugs) with personal coaching on nutrition, cellular cleansing, digestive repair, circadian rhythm repair, stress management, and functional exercise that fix root causes naturally, or Medical Weight Loss using clinically tested treatments such as next-generation GLP-1 therapies when appropriate, backed by lab testing to ensure you burn fat while preserving lean mass. The majority of women lose significant body fat and maintain results long-term while feeling revitalized instead of exhausted.
