Hormone therapy (HT), also known as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or natural hormone therapy, helps treat common symptoms caused by shifts in hormone levels. It can provide relief from issues like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, emotional changes, and sleep disturbances.
When hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone decline or become imbalanced, patients may experience unpleasant symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. By replacing these hormones through gels, patches, implants, injections or pills, many symptoms can be effectively managed.
HRT helps both men and women whose natural hormone production has declined due to aging or other health conditions. It is an evidence-based treatment that can provide transformative benefits when prescribed and monitored appropriately.
The decision to start hormone therapy is complex and based on each patient's unique physiology and symptoms. Key factors physicians consider include:
Harmony Hormone Centerians carefully evaluate the above criteria when advising patients on hormone replacement regimens customized to their unique needs and objectives. Close monitoring ensures optimal symptom relief with minimized risks.
The process of beginning hormone replacement therapy typically involves:
HRT regimens require oversight by licensed healthcare professionals specializing in hormone therapy. Harmony Hormone Centerians offer fully-managed treatment programs customized to each patient's physiology, symptoms, and lifestyle.
Protocols may involve prescription estrogen replacement, testosterone therapy, thyroid hormones, DHEA and other treatments to address confirmed deficiencies or imbalances.
When hormones decline or become imbalanced, hormone replacement offers a variety of benefits for both men and women:
For those experiencing moderate to severe menopause or andropause symptoms, properly administered hormone therapy can provide profound relief from issues that disrupt sleep, work and relationships. Symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and low libido often resolve with treatment.
By regulating hormones that got disrupted by aging, stress or other factors, many patients report feeling more energetic, mentally sharp and emotionally balanced. Hormone optimization programs aim to help patients feel their best day-to-day.
Imbalanced hormones left untreated raise risks for several age-related diseases. Estrogen replacement in particular offers protective effects for the heart, bones, brain and other areas. Testosterone therapy provides similar benefits for men.
When delivered appropriately under medical guidance, hormone replacement therapy remains one of the most transformative interventions available for managing common symptoms caused by shifting hormone levels. Harmony Hormone Centerians leverage cutting-edge testing and therapies to help patients restore balance, vigor and an overall sense of wellbeing.
Hormone therapy can help transgender individuals match their physical characteristics with their gender identity. While the effects of hormone therapy are well-known, many don't realize that the first recipients of sex reassignment surgeries and hormone treatments were actually cisgender people - those born with physical ambiguities or genetically intersex.
