Hormone Replacement Therapy
As we move through the menopause transition, we experience hormone fluctuations, characterized by symptoms like hot flashes, low libido, vaginal dryness, and more. Finding treatment for these symptoms isn’t always easy, and knowing what’s right can feel daunting. At Winona, our health care providers prescribe bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). This treatment involves using bioidentical estrogen and progestogen, as well as DHEA, to restore the declining hormone levels that are causing your symptoms.
There are many misconceptions about HRT that can keep women like you from receiving real help with lasting results. Understanding the facts about HRT can help you decide how you want to move forward with treatment.
Menopause doesn’t have to mean a loss of control. Learn more about how HRT could help you manage your menopause symptoms. At Winona, our doctors are eager to address any questions and concerns you may have and help determine if HRT is right for you.
