Hypertension and Menopausal Hormone Therapy

🔹 HRT can be taken alongside antihypertensive treatment.
🔹 There is no evidence that estradiol based HRT increases blood pressure
🔹 Transdermal estrogen has less effect on renin angiotensin system than oral therapy

What is Surgical Menopause?

Occurs when both ovaries are removed (bilateral oophorectomy), often during a hysterectomy to treat various medical conditions.

Why It’s Different from Natural Menopause:
🔹 Hormone levels drop suddenly
🔹 Symptoms can be more intense and immediate.

Common Symptoms:
🔹 Severe hot flashes and night sweats
🔹 Sexual dysfunction and vaginal dryness
🔹 Sudden loss of fertility
🔹 Increased risk of osteoporosis and heart disease
🔹 Libido loss is often more severe than in natural menopause

Why HRT Matters
🔹 Reduces vasomotor symptoms
🔹 Supports bone and heart health
🔹 Improves sexual function and mood
🔹 Helps preserve quality of life

Every Woman Deserves Informed Care

Know My Health Journey: Dr Priyanka Mehta

At 45, I began to feel off.
Anxiety, forgetfulness, poor sleep, mood swings — and I knew it wasn’t “just stress.”
It was early menopause.

I turned to what I now offer my patients:
✨ Detailed lab testing
✨ Nutrition & lifestyle support
✨ Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT)

The results?
Not just symptom relief — but clarity, calm, strength, and energy again.

Now I help other women do the same.
Because you shouldn’t have to suffer in silence.

Perimenopause Is More Than Just Period Changes

Perimenopause is often misunderstood as simply irregular or missed periods—but it goes far beyond that. It can affect nearly every system in the body. Women may experience changes in energy levels, mood swings, disrupted sleep, reduced libido, skin and hair changes, palpitations, joint and muscle discomfort, and even a shift in confidence and emotional well-being. These symptoms are not imagined—they’re hormonal, and very real.

Understanding the Timeline and Diagnosis

Perimenopause can begin as early as the mid-30s, but it most commonly starts between the ages of 35 and 45. For many women, symptoms may persist for 4 to 10 years. There is no single blood test that can definitively diagnose perimenopause. Instead, it requires a comprehensive understanding of your symptoms, medical history, and hormonal shifts over time. If you’re not feeling like yourself, it’s important to listen to your body—these signs are worth paying attention to.

You Don’t Have to Navigate This Alone

You don’t have to push through perimenopause or menopause in silence. With the right guidance, support, and treatment plan, you can feel like yourself again—energized, balanced, and confident. Whether through lifestyle changes, nutritional support, or bioidentical hormones, there are safe and effective ways to ease your transition.

Do You Feel Worse When Starting HRT?

You’re not alone.

Many women experience side effects in the first few weeks as the body adjusts to new hormone levels.

This doesn’t mean HRT isn’t right for you.
What you need is adjustment, not abandonment.

Don’t stop suddenly — it can make symptoms worse.
Talk to a menopause specialist for the right guidance.

If HRT isn't working well right away, try this:

✔️ Give it time – most experts recommend trying it for at least 3 months
✔️ Switch it up – patches, gels, tablets, or doses might suit you better
✔️ Check your thyroid & nutrients – deficiencies or imbalances can mimic menopause
✔️ Rule out other conditions – non-hormonal issues, medications, or mental health can play a role
✔️ Review your plan – your body changes, and your treatment should evolve too

đź’¬ Have questions or feeling unsure about your HRT plan?
📩 Send me a DM or book a consultation — let's create a treatment approach tailored to your body, your hormones, and your life.

Do your l***a disappear after menopause?

It’s a question many women have—but often feel too embarrassed to ask.

As estrogen levels decline during perimenopause and menopause, changes in vulval tissue
—what we call vulval architecture
—can occur. This may include thinning of the l***a, dryness, tightness, or a change in texture and appearance.

For some women, it can feel as if their l***a are “disappearing”—but what’s really happening is a loss of tissue volume and elasticity due to hormonal changes.

The good news?
Topical oestrogen is a safe, effective treatment that can restore tissue health and comfort—and is safe for
long-term use in most women.

Menopause Isn’t “Just Aging”
It’s a hormonal deficiency.

When your thyroid hormones are low, we prescribe thyroxine.
When your insulin is not efficient we give insulin.

So when your estradiol, progesterone and testosterone drop in menopause...
Why should you be told to “just deal with it”?

Hormone Therapy is not a luxury — it’s a medical option.

Let’s stop normalizing suffering.
Let’s start treating menopause like the hormonal condition it truly is.

Grateful for the trust you’ve placed in me. 🌸
It’s always a privilege to be part of someone’s wellness journey.
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can be life-changing. Here’s how it can help:
Did you know the right timing and type of HRT can have life-saving benefits

💖 Women who started HRT before 60 had a 30% lower risk of death from all causes – including heart disease, cancer, and stroke.
đź§  Those who took estradiol within 5 years of menopause had a lower risk of dementia and cognitive decline.
🦴 Women on estradiol had 33% fewer hip fractures and improved bone density.

HRT is not just about hot flashes — it’s about long-term health. When used mindfully and individually, it can be a game changer.
