Hormone Replacement Therapy Q & A
What is hormone replacement therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment for low hormone levels. Hormones are chemicals from your endocrine glands that travel through your blood, directing various functions like mood, metabolism, and sex drive.
When hormone levels are in balance, your body works as it should. However, any change in hormone production affects your physical and emotional well-being. HRT restores low hormone levels to help you feel like you again.
Abacep Testosterone and Weight Loss Clinic specializes in HRT, conducting thorough evaluations to get the right diagnosis that explains your symptoms so you get the most effective treatment.
Who needs hormone replacement therapy?
Anyone can experience a change in hormone production. However, the production of sex hormones, including the male sex hormone testosterone and the female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone, naturally declines as you age.
Many symptoms people brush off as a normal part of the aging process are because of changes in sex hormone levels. Signs and symptoms that you may need HRT include the following:
- Hair loss
- Lack of interest in your intimate partner
- Mood swings
- Anxiety
- Weight gain
- Erectile dysfunction (ED) in men
- Vaginal dryness in women
- Dry skin
- Difficulty sleeping
If you’re experiencing these symptoms, schedule an appointment with the team at Abacep Testosterone and Weight Loss Clinic.
What happens during a hormone replacement therapy evaluation?
The team at Abacep Testosterone and Weight Loss Clinic conducts a thorough evaluation when you come in for an HRT evaluation. The team asks detailed questions about your symptoms, goals, daily routine, and medical history.
They do a physical exam and run lab work to check your hormone levels.
What can I expect from hormone replacement therapy?
The team talks to you about your health, the results of your evaluation, and the treatments that can help. If your hormone levels are low and causing symptoms that affect your quality of life, the team creates an HRT plan that restores hormone balance and eases symptoms.
