Most women don’t “fail” HRT. They start it without understanding what’s happening underneath.

Hormones don’t correct dysfunction, they amplify it.
Blood sugar imbalances.
Inflammation.
Iron overload.
Thyroid dysfunction.

That’s why at Formulae Albion, we take a measured, data-first approach.

In collaboration with Mary Lou, Hormone Specialist, we focus on understanding the full picture before hormones are introduced so treatment is personalised, safer, and far more effective.

Test, don't guess.

January is Cervical Health Awareness Month 💙

Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, yet many people still miss regular screening.

Here’s what’s important to know 👇
• Cervical cancer is most often caused by HPV, a very common virus
• Most HPV infections clear on their own, but persistent high-risk types can lead to cervical cell changes over time
• HPV vaccination significantly reduces risk, but screening is still essential
• Australia now uses HPV testing, which is more accurate than the old Pap smear
• If your test is clear, screening is only needed every 5 years (ages 25–74)
• You may be eligible to self-collect your screening sample, making the process easier and more comfortable

If you’re unsure when your last screening was, or want to talk through HPV, vaccination, or screening options, booking a chat with your GP is a powerful first step.

Early detection saves lives and cervical screening has never been more accessible.

Did you know low estrogen can affect your rotator cuff tendons?

The rotator cuff has a high concentration of estrogen receptors, which help maintain tendon strength and tissue integrity.

When estrogen levels decline, particularly during perimenopause and menopause, this protective effect can reduce, making tendons more vulnerable to degeneration and micro-tears over time.

This may present as:
• Pain in the outer upper arm or top of the shoulder
• Discomfort with overhead movements or reaching behind your back
• Swelling or tenderness at the front of the shoulder
• Clicking with movement
• Reduced strength or range of motion

This is often referred to as Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy (RCT).

📊 Research suggests postmenopausal women with lower estrogen levels have a higher risk of RCT compared to those with balanced hormones.

Why this matters:
For many women, ongoing shoulder pain isn’t just mechanical or inflammatory, it can be hormonally influenced.

Which is why pain relief alone may not address the root cause.

At The Compounding Lab, we take a whole-body, hormone-aware approach- looking beyond the joint to understand what’s happening internally.

👉 If this resonates, our hormone specialist Mary Lou can talk you through whether hormones may be playing a role and what supportive options might look like for you.

When it comes to your health, testing is always better than guessing.

Too often, people load up on a cupboard full of vitamins, supplements, or medications without truly knowing what their body needs. While well-intentioned, this can:

✨ Mask underlying issues
✨ Lead to nutrient imbalances
✨ Waste time and money
✨ Delay the right treatment

Your body is unique, so your treatment should be too. At The Lab, we use testing to identify deficiencies and imbalances, then create tailored, compounded solutions designed specifically for you.

Stop guessing. Start testing. Book a consult today and take the guesswork out of your health.

Even believing just one hormone myth can quietly affect your energy, metabolism, bone density, brain health, sleep and overall quality of life.

👉 Which of these myths do you still believe the most?

If you’re ready to protect your brain, bones, heart, and independence, our hormone specialist Mary Lou can chat with you about your hormones and guide your next steps.

✨ Let 2026 be the year of clear, healthy skin! ✨

At Formulae, we know skin is more than just appearance... it’s your largest organ and a mirror of internal balance. When your skin microbiome is disrupted by antibiotics, harsh products, stress, or hormones, it can lead to irritation, flare-ups, acne, and slow healing.

A smarter approach? Targeted functional support + expert care.
• B5-based protocols help balance metabolism and calm breakouts from the inside out.
• Topical B5 & prescription B3 creams support skin health externally.
• Bioidentical hormone therapy can restore moisture, density and firmness as hormones decline.

Our Skin Health service focuses on rebuilding healthy, glowing skin from within because lasting results come from treating the root causes, not just the surface.

Ready for a personalised approach to your best skin yet? Call us: (07) 3862 6000

A brand new 2025 Brown University review analysed 16 studies with over 150,000 participants and found that just 31 days without alcohol creates measurable improvements in liver function, sleep, mood, brain health, and blood pressure.

Participants who completed Dry January reported:

- Better sleep
- Improved mood
- Weight loss
- Healthier liver function
- Lower blood pressure
- Better concentration
- More energy

Most importantly, the majority continued drinking less even after January ended.

Even a short break from alcohol allows your body to heal and reset. Are you going to try Dry January?
