How we write and source guides
Hormone therapy benefits and risks, by treatment goal
Hormone therapy is neither universally dangerous nor universally right. Its value depends on the problem being treated and the person receiving it.
Read the guideAll guides
19 guides across eight topics, each with a numbered list of the sources behind it.
Metabolic health
Understand GLP-1 care, side effects, body composition, and durable metabolic support.
- What does “microdosing GLP-1” actually mean?Microdosing is a marketing term, not a single standardized medical protocol. The drug, dose, indication, formulation, and titration plan all matter.
- GLP-1 side effects: what patients should monitorNausea may be common, but not every symptom is routine. A good plan explains what to expect, what to track, and when to call.
- GLP-1 treatment and muscle loss: how to protect functionWeight loss is not only a number on the scale. The goal is to reduce health risk while preserving strength, mobility, nutrition, and the ability to live well.
Hormone health
Clear guidance for perimenopause, menopause, symptoms, benefits, and treatment tradeoffs.
- Signs it may be time to discuss hormone therapySymptoms can start the conversation, but they cannot decide the treatment. Life stage, medical history, preferences, risks, and alternatives belong in the same room.
- Does hormone replacement therapy cause weight gain?Midlife body composition can change for many reasons. Hormone therapy and the menopause transition are related parts of the story, not interchangeable explanations.
- HRT for perimenopause: evaluation and optionsPerimenopause is a transition, not a single lab result. The right conversation connects symptoms, cycle history, health risks, treatment goals, and personal preferences.
- Hormone therapy benefits and risks, by treatment goalHormone therapy is neither universally dangerous nor universally right. Its value depends on the problem being treated and the person receiving it.
Peptide care
Separate responsible prescription care from vague promises and research-product marketing.
- What is peptide therapy? A clinician-first guidePeptides are not one treatment category with one evidence standard. The specific molecule, indication, regulatory status, dose, and patient all matter.
- How much does peptide therapy cost?The lowest advertised monthly price is rarely the complete cost. Compare the clinical pathway, medication source, and follow-up, not just the vial.
Hair health
Start with the pattern, diagnosis, safety questions, and realistic treatment timeline.
Hair healthComing soon
- Online hair loss treatment: what a real evaluation includesA subscription can ship a product. Good care first asks what pattern of hair loss is actually present.
- Stem cell therapy for hair loss: evidence, claims, and red flagsA clinic may use the words regenerative or stem cell without offering the same product, procedure, or evidence. The exact intervention matters.
- Hair shedding vs. patterned hair loss: how to tell the differenceMore hair in the brush and a slowly widening part can look similar at first. The timeline, distribution, triggers, scalp findings, and regrowth pattern help separate them.
- Oral vs. topical hair-loss treatment: what changes the decisionThe easier route is not automatically the safer or more effective one. Diagnosis, sex, pregnancy potential, medical history, side effects, and the ability to stay consistent all matter.
Longevity
Build healthspan on prevention, function, evidence, and habits that hold up over time.
Primary careComing soon
- What is longevity medicine?The goal is not immortality. It is more years of function, independence, and health, with ordinary prevention done exceptionally well.
- A healthy-aging checklist built on evidence, not hypeLongevity starts with the work most people can actually do: prevent disease, protect function, stay connected, and make the next healthy choice easier to repeat.
Cannabis medicine
Understand how telehealth, state programs, prescription drugs, compounding, and retail products differ.
Cannabis medicineComing soon
Regenerative medicine
Verify product identity, evidence, regulation, and cost before believing a regenerative claim.
Stem cellsComing soon
- How much does stem cell therapy cost, and what are you buying?A price quote cannot tell you whether a regenerative product is approved, lawful, evidence-based, or appropriate. Verify the treatment before comparing the cost.
- How to verify a stem-cell or exosome claim before payingWords such as registered, compliant, regenerative, or physician-developed do not establish that an exact product is FDA-approved, proven, or appropriate.
Whole-person care
Learn what connected, root-cause-oriented telehealth can and cannot responsibly do.
Editorial standard
Useful enough to answer the question. Honest enough to show the limits.
Everdawn editorial team
- Primary sources, numbered
- Guides draw on FDA, NIH, and professional medical societies. A number in the text links to the source for that statement.
- Care kept distinct
- Every guide separates approved treatment, off-label care, pharmacy compounding, investigational research, and retail products.
- No promises
- Future services stay clearly labeled, and no guide guarantees a prescription or an outcome.
- Dated, and credited honestly
- Each guide shows when it was published. A guide names a clinical reviewer only after a licensed clinician has reviewed it.
