Symptoms of Menopause
Menopause is a natural transition, but the symptoms don’t have to control your life. Declining estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels can cause a wide range of physical and emotional changes. If you’re experiencing any of the following, hormone replacement therapy may help:
Hot flashes and night sweats
Irregular or absent periods
Vaginal dryness and discomfort
Mood swings, irritability, or anxiety
Sleep disturbances and insomnia
Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
Weight gain (especially around the midsection)
Decreased libido and sexual desire
Joint pain and muscle aches
Hair thinning and dry skin
Fatigue and low energy
Urinary urgency or incontinence
Testing
A comprehensive hormone panel is essential before starting any treatment. We test the following key markers to understand your unique hormonal picture:
Estradiol (E2)
Primary estrogen — declines significantly during menopause, causing hot flashes and bone loss.
Progesterone
Balances estrogen; low levels contribute to anxiety, insomnia, and irregular bleeding.Total & Free Testosterone
Affects libido, energy, muscle tone, and mental clarity in women.
FSH & LH
Elevated levels confirm menopausal transition and ovarian function decline.
Thyroid Panel (TSH, Free T3/T4)
Thyroid dysfunction mimics menopause symptoms; must be ruled out or co-treated.DHEA-S
Adrenal hormone precursor that supports energy, mood, and immune function.
Treatment Options
We use bioidentical hormones tailored to your lab results, symptoms, and health history. Our most common treatment protocols include:
Estrogen Patch
A transdermal patch delivers a steady, low dose of estradiol through the skin. This is the preferred route for most women because it bypasses the liver, reducing clotting risk.
Steady hormone levels with fewer fluctuations
Lower risk of blood clots vs. oral estrogen
Relieves hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness
Applied 1–2 times per week
Progesterone Pills
Micronized progesterone (bioidentical) is taken orally, typically at bedtime. It balances estrogen, protects the uterine lining, and has a natural calming effect that promotes sleep.
Protects the uterus when taking estrogen
Promotes deeper, more restful sleep
Reduces anxiety and supports mood
Taken nightly as a simple oral capsule
Testosterone Cream
A compounded topical testosterone cream applied daily in small doses. Women need much less testosterone than men, but optimal levels are essential for libido, energy, and cognition.
Restores libido and sexual desire
Improves energy and mental clarity
Supports lean muscle and bone density
Applied daily in a precise, low dose

Frequently Asked Questions
Is hormone replacement therapy (HRT) safe?
When prescribed at the right dose, route, and timing by a qualified provider, bioidentical HRT is considered safe for most women. We use evidence-based protocols and monitor you closely with follow-up labs.
What are bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. They are derived from plant sources and are available as patches, creams, pills, and pellets.
Will HRT cause weight gain?
No — in fact, balanced hormones often help with weight management. Estrogen and testosterone support metabolism, lean muscle mass, and fat distribution.
How long do I need to stay on HRT?
Treatment duration is individualized. Many women benefit from HRT for 5–10+ years. We reassess annually based on your symptoms, labs, and health goals.
Can I take HRT if I have a family history of breast cancer?
Each case is evaluated individually. Bioidentical progesterone and transdermal estrogen carry a different risk profile than synthetic hormones. We discuss your personal risk factors in detail.
When should I start HRT?
The best time to start is during perimenopause or within 10 years of menopause onset. Starting early maximizes cardiovascular and bone-protective benefits.
