Menopause & Perimenopause
BHRT is commonly used to relieve symptoms related to perimenopause and menopause, which can include vaginal dryness, painful sex, hot flashes, adrenal fatigue, sleep problems, weight gain, mood changes, joint pain, loss of muscle mass, and more.
Loss of Bone Density
In the decade following menopause, bones can become brittle, fragile, and easily fractured. Your provider can help you address postmenopausal osteoporosis with BHRT.
Heart Health
Women have lower risks of cardiovascular problems before menopause due to the protection of female hormones. Once estrogen and other hormones start to decline, women may need hormone replacement to provide cardiovascular protection.
Sexual Dysfunction
BHRT can help with low libido in both sexes, vaginal dryness in women, and sexual dysfunction in men.
Muscle and Strength Loss
As we age and hormone levels decrease, men and women can lose muscle mass and strength. BHRT can help you improve your quality of life and continue to participate in the activities that you enjoy.
Mood and Physical Changes
Hormonal changes that occur as we age can cause or worsen mood swings, anxiety, and depression. Patients may also have physical symptoms related to hormonal changes like rapid heart rate, shortness of breath, nausea, and shakiness.
