Hormone Replacement Therapy FAQs

During the intake and evaluation process, our medical team will review your symptoms, medical history, and lab work to determine whether HRT is an appropriate option. We focus on personalized, safe care and will discuss any potential risks or contraindications with you before starting treatment.

HRT is considered safe for many healthy individuals, particularly when started within an appropriate time frame from the onset of hormonal symptoms. However, safety depends on personal and family medical history, and we carefully monitor your health throughout treatment to ensure it remains effective and appropriate.

Some individuals may notice symptom relief within a few weeks, while for others it may take a few months. We schedule regular follow-ups to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan for optimal results.

HRT can help stabilize mood and energy levels by balancing hormone fluctuations. Some individuals may notice mild weight changes, though HRT itself is not directly associated with significant weight gain. Factors like lifestyle, nutrition, and other medications may also influence these changes.
