There’s a lot of buzz around Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), and many people are wondering if it is something that would benefit their health and well-being. 

Unfortunately, as we age and go through various life events, our bodies don’t always produce the correct hormones or the right amount of hormones, and this affects both men and women. HRT is a common practice that uses natural hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone to help get patients back into hormonal balance that’s appropriate for their age, gender, and goals. 

If you are going through one of the following signs or symptoms, hormone therapy might be right for you:

• Weight gain
• Joint pain
• Low energy and fatigue
• Difficulty sleeping
• Hair loss
• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Mood changes
• Loss of Libido

If you’re wondering if you might need hormone therapy, the first thing you will want to do is make an appointment at our clinic for a consultation and blood work. During this visit, we will discuss your symptoms and goals and then be able to gather data from the results of your blood draw that will help us create a customized plan of action. 

After starting HRT, many patients start to see an improvement in their condition in a few weeks and will enjoy the full benefits after several months. HRT may also improve conditions such as:

• Menopause
• Andropause
• Obesity
• Osteoporosis
• Headaches and Migraines
• Depression

There are many studies showing the benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy, and it is completely safe. It’s a wonderful tool used by many regular people – not just famous athletes or women going through menopause. If you’re feeling “off,” and don’t know why, this might just be your fix!
