Female Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone replacement therapies are prescribed medications that contain a mixture of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone used to replace the hormones that your body stops making in perimenopause and menopause. Hormone therapy is first line treatment for menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and vaginal discomfort.

The treatment has also been proven to reduce bone loss and fracture in postmenopausal women.

Bio-identical Hormones are chemically the same structure that your own body produces. Compounded prescriptions are preferred so they can be tailored to your specific needs.

Common hormones prescribed: estradiol, estriol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and pregnenolone

Common Forms: topical creams, oral capsules, troches, topical patches, injections and pellets

Whether your goal is prevention or replacement Dr. Erin Winter will evaluate your symptoms and laboratory tests to create a tailored treatment plan made specifically for you.
