Do you have Questions?
What is female hormone therapy?
Female hormone therapy involves the administration of hormones to correct imbalances that often occur during menopause, perimenopause, or as part of other hormonal disorders. It aims to alleviate symptoms caused by the natural decrease in production of hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.
Who can benefit from female hormone therapy?
Women experiencing symptoms related to menopause like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, memory problems, and issues with sexual function, or those suffering from conditions like Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) or endometriosis may benefit from hormone therapy.
What symptoms does hormone therapy address?
Hormone therapy can help manage a wide range of symptoms including, but not limited to, hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings, decreased libido, and sleep disturbances.
Is hormone therapy safe?
Hormone therapy is safe for many women when administered under the guidance of a healthcare professional. However, it is not suitable for everyone, including women who have had certain types of cancer, blood clots, or liver disease. A thorough evaluation and discussion of your medical history and risks are crucial before starting treatment.
How long does it take to see effects from hormone therapy?
The effects of hormone therapy can vary. Some women may experience symptom relief within a few weeks, while others might take a few months to notice significant changes. Ongoing consultation with your healthcare provider is important to adjust therapy as needed.
How is hormone therapy administered?
Hormone therapy can be administered in several forms, including pills, patches, creams, gels, or injections. The method of administration will depend on your preferences, medical history, and specific health needs.
Are there any side effects of hormone therapy?
Like all treatments, hormone therapy can have side effects. Common ones include bloating, breast tenderness, headaches, mood swings, and nausea. Discussing these potential effects with your healthcare provider can help manage and mitigate them effectively.

Beyond relieving menopausal symptoms, hormone therapy may help prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of osteoporosis associated with estrogen decline.
