A member asked:
What type of doctor would be most knowledgeable in balancing hormones? endo? obgyn?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Which hormones?: Obgyn work with estrogen & progestogens quite a bit. Endocrinologists specialize in all hormones. Family docs are also trained to deal with most common hormone issues such as hypothyroidism, diabetes, menopause, hypogonadism, etc. Your insurance company might ask you to go see your family doc first who can then treat & refer as deemed appropriate.

Check with your doc: Internal medicine, endo, gyn. "balancing hormones" is usually pseudomedicine. You want to get different opinions.
