Over 1,000 patients cared for

Medyca is the medical centre in Italy specialising in the use of bioidentical hormones and compounded preparations to build personalised therapies, offering a more complete approach to hormonal health and wellbeing over time.
Under the guidance of Dr Cristina Lenzi, our method starts with a complete hormonal assessment and an in-depth analysis of the symptoms. From there we build a tailored pathway to ensure hormonal balance and prevention for the heart, bones and brain.
From the first introductory consultation to monitoring over time, every patient is supported with a 360-degree medical perspective: scientific, personalised and built around the person's needs.
In-person visits in Siena and online consultations for patients across Italy and abroad.

Dr Lenzi and her Staff at the Medyca practice are excellent in everything. I am really glad to have got their contact from my breast specialist.
In Dr Lenzi I found a reliable and competent guide on a pathway that is very important to me. She is a highly skilled professional, attentive in listening and able to understand individual needs. She proposed a personalised pathway to me, with a treatment truly “tailored to me”, making me feel looked after and supported with care and professionalism. I particularly appreciated her availability, the clarity of her explanations and her approach, always attentive to my personal situation. I am very satisfied to have undertaken this pathway with her and I feel I can recommend her to anyone looking for a competent and attentive professional in the field of bioidentical hormone therapy.

Symptoms and perimenopause
Changing periods, waking at 2am, stiff joints in the morning, a mood that comes and goes, tiredness with “normal” test results: the symptoms that herald perimenopause, the age at which they appear and the hormone behind each one. With Dr Lenzi.
Hormones and therapy
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structure as the ones your body produces. Here you will find what they are for in menopause, how they are taken, whether they are safe, what sets them apart from synthetic hormones and who can prescribe them.
