What is hormone replacement therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy, which is sometimes referred to by our team at HRT, is a wonderful option for women who are seeking relief from the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. This natural change in one’s life can result in a dip of hormone levels that can contribute to various side effects. By bringing the hormone levels back into line, many women can avoid issues such as:
- Increased depression and anxiety
- Night sweats
- Hot flashes
- Irregular or missed periods
- Significant mood changes
- Decreased libido
- Vaginal dryness
- Breast soreness and discomfort
- Headaches/migraines
- Increased fatigue
- Bloating
- Digestive changes
- Muscle tension and aches
- Difficulty concentrating and focusing
- Memory lapses
- Sleep disturbances
Should I take hormones to address my perimenopause and menopause symptoms?
If the symptoms of menopause are significantly impacting your daily quality of life, it may be time to talk to a doctor about hormone replacement therapy to balance hormone levels and eradicate common symptoms. A consultation visit and thorough evaluation is the first step in finding out more.
