Reclaiming Your Radiance: Navigating Menopause with East County Internal Medicine


To the women of Lakewood Ranch and Bradenton: If you feel like you haven’t been “yourself” lately, you are not alone. Whether it’s the sudden jolt of a hot flash in the middle of a meeting, the frustration of insomnia keeping you up until dawn, or a cloud of dysphoria and depression that won’t seem to lift—these aren’t just “parts of getting older.” They are signals from your body that deserve expert, compassionate attention.


At East County Internal Medicine, we understand that menopause is a major life transition that affects your physical, emotional, and sexual well-being. As your local primary care experts in Lakewood Ranch, we are poised to provide immediate relief through a variety of tailored treatment modalities.


The Symptoms We Solve Together


Many women suffer in silence with symptoms that impact every facet of their lives. We specialize in addressing:


Physical Disruptions: Persistent hot flashes, night sweats, and heart palpitations.
Mental & Emotional Health: Dysphoria, irritability, and the “brain fog” that makes daily tasks feel mountain-sized.
Restorative Health: Chronic insomnia and the fatigue that follows a lack of quality sleep.
Intimate Wellness: Low libido and physical discomfort that can strain your most important relationships.


Our Multimodal Approach to Relief


We don’t believe in “one size fits all” medicine. Our primary care team utilizes diverse strategies to get you back to feeling like yourself:


Bio-Identical & Traditional Hormone Therapy: We provide expert management of hormone replacement to steady estrogen and progesterone levels, often the “gold standard” for systemic relief.


Targeted Non-Hormonal Medications: For those who cannot or choose not to take hormones, we offer FDA-approved options like Veozah for hot flashes or specific SSRIs that help with both mood and physical symptoms.


Medical Cannabis Program: Dr. Kunwar has helped hundreds of local residents find safe, legal relief for anxiety and sleeplessness through our dedicated medical cannabis program.


Lifestyle & Nutritional Guidance: From phytoestrogens to specialized supplements, we help you adjust your daily habits to support long-term hormonal balance.
