Let’s chat about hormones…!
Q: What is HRT?🩺💕
A: Hormone Replacement Therapy replaces estrogen (and sometimes progesterone or testosterone) that the body stops producing during perimenopause or menopause. It helps manage symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, brain fog, sleep, libido, energy, and bone loss.
Q: Who should consider HRT?
A: Women with moderate to severe menopausal symptoms, early menopause, premature ovarian insufficiency, or those at risk for osteoporosis may benefit, after reviewing personal health history.
✨Symptoms & Benefits
Q: What symptoms does HRT help?
A: Hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, mood swings, vaginal dryness, urinary discomfort, prevention of bone loss etc.
Q: How quickly does HRT work?
A: Many women notice symptom relief within 2–6 weeks, though full benefits may take a few months depending on formulation and dose.
Q: Can HRT improve sleep or mood?
A: Yes — by reducing night sweats, hot flashes, and hormonal fluctuations that affect serotonin and melatonin.
✨Types & Delivery
Q: What types of HRT are available?
A: Systemic estrogen (pills, patches, gels)
Local estrogen (vaginal creams, tablets, rings)
Combined HRT (estrogen + progesterone) if you have a uterus
Q: Which type is best for me?
A: It depends on symptoms, health history, risk factors, and personal preference — a provider can individualize your therapy.
