How does starting hormones work?
Your first visit is in person at our location or virtual, with labs at our location or a lab partner location near you. Results and next steps, including your prescription, usually come through the Patient Portal about a week later.
How often will I need labs?
Usually again at about 6 weeks, then every 6 months once your levels are stable.
Can I do this virtually?
Yes. Visits can be virtual anywhere in California. Only your labs need a location, ours or a partner lab near you.
I’m already on hormones. Can Haven take over?
Yes. Share your recent labs and current medications in your intake questions, and your provider will continue your care.
