Schedule an initial consultation through mobile or book online to explore the benefits of HRT for your health and wellness.
What Can Hormone Replacement Therapy Do for You?
1) HRT For Menopausal Women
The most well-known benefit of hormone therapy is that it helps women manage menopause symptoms. These include symptoms such as night sweats and hot flashes. It has also been shown to reduce the dangers of health problems associated with estrogen deficiency, like loss of bone density and heightened risk of fractures.
2) HRT Address Testosterone Deficiency in Men
With aging, more and more men experience a reduction in testosterone. When this ‘male hormone’ is out of whack, one might experience:
- Reduced sexual drive
- Loss of muscle mass
- Reduced endurance
- Depression
- Mood changes
- Changes in hair and skin
Whereas there is not as much study on the impacts of declining testosterone levels in males, it is apparent that HRT could help you feel better by eliminating or reducing these symptoms.
3) HRT Could Enhance Work Performance
Hormone imbalance symptoms could affect several aspects of your life, including work productivity. Some common symptoms include:
- Sleeping problems that keep you up all-day
- Mood swings and irritability
- Having trouble concentrating or focusing
- Insufficient motivation
- Depression and anxiety
These symptoms can impede your work obligations and make it difficult for you to perform at your best at work. Hormone therapy can help you regain your equilibrium.
4) HRT Significantly Alleviates the Physical Symptoms of Decreased Sex Hormones
Hormone abnormalities might make you feel depressed and anxious but can also have physical effects. In addition to night sweats and hot flashes, you might notice:
- Weight gain
- Joint pains and aches
- Vaginal itching and dryness
- Modifications in body composition
HRT could help with these and many other symptoms of reduced sex hormones.
5) HRT Could Help You Live a Healthier Life
Hormone replacement treatment does not correct all of the symptoms of aging. However, many women and men who receive HRT at Fit Life MD often report positive life-changing changes in their symptoms and perspective. These include replenished energy, enhanced sleep, and greater motivation to eat a healthy diet, regular exercise, and other lifestyle adjustments to improve physical health.
Are You Considering Hormone Replacement Treatment?
HRT is not a one-size-fits-all remedy to hormone imbalance. Therefore, it is not appropriate for everybody. If you are at risk for breast cancer, have a record of blood clots, or have a family history of heart illness, you might not be the right candidate for HRT.
However, for most men and women, the advantages of HRT outweigh the downsides. Before starting HRT at Fit Life MD, you could anticipate a comprehensive physical exam and cross-check of your health records. If necessary, your doctor might request additional testing to assess your hormone levels and replacement needs.
You need not suffer from the negative impacts of a hormone imbalance for another day. To discover how hormone replacement therapy can help you feel rejuvenated, call the office or request an initial consultation with Dr. Cardona right away.
