Donna White is the creator of The Hormone makeover and the bio identical hormone replacement training academy or BHRT training academy. Donna has a very interesting story and struggled with her own severe hormone problems in our early 30s, which started her voracious study of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. She wanted to make sure that other women did not have to suffer like she did. She went from being a hormonal train wreck to growing for practices publishing a book, writing several eBooks, a training manual for providers, appearing on numerous radio and TV shows, filming multiple educational videos, podcasts and blogging, and has become an internationally recognized speaker for medical conferences, business organizations and women's groups in the topic of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy.
