Are you a candidate for HRT?
While HRT can be highly effective, it is essential to undergo a thorough medical evaluation to determine if it is appropriate for you. This process helps identify any potential risks and side effects associated with the therapy.
As women age there can be a noticeable decline in sexual desire, sleep disturbances, and cognitive difficulties, like memory lapses or difficulty concentrating. These could all signal the need for HRT. Osteoporosis or a significant decrease in bone density, resulting in an increased risk of fractures, is another critical sign that HRT might be beneficial. Addressing these symptoms early can help maintain health and well-being.

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is prescribed for women primarily to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. It helps in managing these symptoms by replenishing the hormones that the body no longer produces after menopause. HRT is also used to prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, which is more common post-menopause. Additionally, HRT can improve overall quality of life by addressing issues like sleep disturbances, fatigue, and cognitive decline, making it a valuable treatment option for many women experiencing menopausal symptoms.
