Compounding pharmacist Karin Carestia is my guest today on The Spa Dr. Show. Karin received her degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy and completed comprehensive programs with PCCA (Professional Compounding Centers of America). She has been a pharmacist for over 20 years and worked for University Pharmacy, Smiths and RiteAid until opening her own compounding pharmacy Alpine Apothecary in 2010.
On today’s show Karin shares with us what makes a compounding pharmacy different from a regular pharmacy, why you might need a compounding pharmacy and how to find one near you. She also covers specific questions to ask a compounding pharmacy to ensure safety and that you’re getting the best quality and accurate potency.
Karin and I also discuss bio-identical hormones – what they are, how they’re made and how compounding the various hormones works. I know there are a lot of questions about compounding and bio-identical hormones, and I really think this will answer those questions!

Dr. Shelena Lalji, known as “Dr. Shel,” is a Board-Certified Ob/Gyn and an honor graduate of Emory University School of Medicine. She has been inspiring and educating women on how to live their healthiest lives for nearly 20 years. After practicing traditional women’s healthcare for over 10 years, she felt the need to focus on a more comprehensive approach to women’s health to uncover the root cause of her patient’s symptoms rather than simply treating the symptoms alone.
Dr. Shel is the author of I Am Woman: Our Journeys to Health, Happiness, and Harmony. She inspires women, through nationwide speaking, media and appearances, to believe they deserve to achieve their goals for complete mind, body and spirit balance in their lives. She enjoys her many roles as a physician, a woman’s advocate, an educator, an entrepreneur, a wife and a mother of two children.
On Today’s show, Dr. Shel shares her secrets for fuller, healthier hair and radiant skin. We discuss the various causes of hair loss, what amount of hair loss is normal, and what role hormones (including thyroid) may be playing. We also cover which tests to ask your health care provider to order and essential nutrients. Dr. Shel also shares some tips on how to have vibrant, radiant skin.
Here are the offers for you from Dr. Shel mentioned on the interview:
1. Free Hypothyroidism 101 ebook.
2. Program offer: Get Your Hair Back with Dr. Shel (6 week course on getting your hair back naturally). The regular price is $249 and she is discounting it to $147 for you, my audience. Enter Promo code: drcateshair
