What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a restorative treatment that replenishes hormones the body naturally produces less with age or imbalance.

The following hormones play vital roles in overall health and well-being:

Estrogen helps regulate skin elasticity, bone density, cardiovascular health, and temperature control. A decline often leads to hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and increased risk of osteoporosis.
Progesterone supports sleep quality, mood stability, and balance within the reproductive system. Lower levels can contribute to insomnia, anxiety, or irregular cycles in women.
Testosterone is important for both men and women. It sustains energy, muscle tone, libido, and mental clarity. Diminished levels may cause fatigue, reduced motivation, or loss of sexual wellness.

HRT works by restoring these hormones to healthier ranges, often using bioidentical formulations carefully designed to mirror the body’s natural chemistry. With consistent medical monitoring, dosing is personalized and adjusted as needed, ensuring treatment remains safe and effective.
