Hormone Replacement Treatment

Hormone Replacement Therapy with Dr. Michael T. Jones

Your body's natural balance is largely maintained by hormones. But as we age or due to certain medical conditions, this balance can be disrupted. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) provides a potential solution. At Dr. Michael T. Jones's clinic, we offer a comprehensive approach to HRT, ensuring your safety and comfort throughout the process.

What is the Most Common Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) primarily refers to the replacement of the hormones that the body isn't producing in sufficient quantities. Most commonly, it involves:

• Estrogen therapy: The most common form, especially for women who have had their uterus removed.
• Progestogen therapy: Generally combined with estrogen for those who still have their uterus, to protect against uterine cancer.

Hormone Therapy for Menopause

Menopause brings about a significant reduction in hormone levels in women, particularly estrogen. This can lead to a variety of symptoms:

• Hot flashes
• Night sweats
• Mood swings
• Vaginal dryness

HRT can help alleviate these symptoms by replenishing the diminished hormone levels, restoring a sense of balance and wellbeing in the process.

Hormone Replacement Therapy Side Effects

While HRT is beneficial, it's essential to be aware of potential side effects:

• Tenderness in breasts
• Nausea
• Headaches
• Mood changes
• Blood clots (in rare cases)

It's crucial to discuss these side effects and weigh the pros and cons with a qualified medical professional.

What is the Cost of Hormone Replacement Therapy?

The cost of HRT can vary depending on the specific treatment, duration, and individual patient needs. It's best to consult directly with our clinic for detailed pricing and potential insurance coverage.
