Every year hundreds of thousands California women search for "CA menopause doctor", "hormone replacement therapy (HRT) specialist CA", and "holistic weight loss clinic" because they’re exhausted by hot flashes, emotional ups and downs, stubborn belly fat, brain fog, sleepless nights, and discomfort during intimacy that most doctors ignore. Most doctors simply say "this is normal just live with it," but that’s outdated advice. You deserve proper support and lasting relief. My name is Dr. Uzma Khan, and at Prime Health Clinic I’ve spent the last more than a decade helping women from all backgrounds across Northern California, East Bay, San Fran, Los Angeles, San Diego, and the all of California feel like themselves again by using custom plans rather than random solutions or generic treatments.
Reasons Why Choosing the Most Trusted Menopause Specialist in California Truly Matters
When menopause symptoms are left untreated or poorly treated, women face higher risks of cardiovascular disease (now the leading cause of death for women), bone loss, depression, sudden weight increase, and adult-onset diabetes. A real menopause specialist doesn’t just treat vasomotor symptoms in separation they look at your hormones, emotional wellbeing, energy balance, rest patterns, daily stress, and lifestyle to design a individualized plan that revives your energy and safeguards your future wellbeing.
Understanding What Makes a Trusted Hormone Health Expert Different?
I am board certified in Psychiatry & Neurology and Obesity Medicine, an proud recognized member of the NAMS, and the publisher of the scientific article "Mood Disorders vs Menopause". I successfully completed my medical residency at UCLA affiliated Kern program and have been a keynote speaker at UCLA medical grand rounds and APPNA conventions. This powerful combination of advanced psychiatry training and specialized menopause education allows me to address the psychological and hormonal sides of menopause at the same stage, something a small number of specialists in CA can provide.

Modern HRT is very different from the early 2000s studies that scared many women, and when used by an experienced menopause specialist with approved options (patches, gels, creams, or pellets) at the minimally effective dose and carefully followed with labs and follow-up, it is generally safe and often dramatically helpful. For women who start within 10 years of their last period or before age 60, the benefit risk balance is favorable randomized and pooled analyses show reductions in cardiovascular events, fractures, and all-cause mortality in that group while HRT also reliably eliminates hot flashes, restores sleep, stabilizes mood, restores libido, and helps with menopause-related weight changes. 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 personalized with shared decision making, ongoing monitoring, and the option to adjust or stop therapy as needed. If you’re struggling with severe symptoms, a specialist can design a individual plan combining HRT (when appropriate) with lifestyle, sleep, metabolic, and mental health strategies to restore energy and protect long term health.

California’s Best Wellness-Based Weight Loss Treatment Center for Midlife Weight Changes in CA
Menopausal belly fat isn’t about discipline it’s biological. As estrogen drops, your body enters chronic stress patterns, glucose metabolism slows, the metabolism-regulating thyroid becomes less efficient, and sleep becomes poor, your body receives powerful storage signals that tell it to protect energy in the belly area. This is exactly why traditional dieting fails during perimenopause 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 defensive fat storage mode designed to keep you safe during times of internal hormonal change.
At Prime Health MD, we offer proven approaches so you can decide on what aligns most for you and your body: Holistic Weight Loss (medication-free, no synthetic appetite suppressants) with private guidance on nutrition, toxin reduction, digestive repair, sleep optimization, nervous system regulation, and functional exercise that fix root causes naturally, or Physician-Guided Weight Loss using clinically tested treatments such as next-generation GLP-1 therapies when needed, backed by regular bloodwork to ensure you lose fat, not muscle. The majority of women lose substantial weight and keep it off long-term while feeling energized instead of starved.
