Female Hormone Optimization Q & A

What is female hormone optimization?

Hormone optimization, or hormone replacement therapy, uses bio-identical hormones to treat a variety of symptoms in pre and post-menopausal women. 

Similar to men, women's testosterone levels start to decline around age 30. Typically this can result in foggy-headedness, memory issues, loss of energy, libido, and even loss of sexual thoughts. Women can experience all of these symptoms before menopause begins. 

Once women are post-menopausal, their body ceases to make any hormones. The lack of hormones in post-menopausal women leaves them potentially three times more likely to suffer from Alzheimer's or dementia in their later years. 

Addressing this issue early in life can significantly affect your later years. We are here to help you obtain optimal health and help you live your best life. Call us at 877-349-5698 to learn more or book a consultation online.

Who should consider hormone optimization?

Consider hormone optimization at New England Low-T Center if you have any of the following symptoms:

  • Lack of energy
  • Loss of libido
  • Mental fogginess
  • Decreased metabolism
  • Hot flashes
  • Cold sweats
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Insomnia (difficulty sleeping)
  • Mood swings or irritability

What happens during a hormone optimization visit?

At New England Low-T Center, a hormone optimization visit begins with a review of your health charts and a discussion of your symptoms. Next, your provider orders lab tests, including bloodwork and urinalysis. If your test results confirm a hormonal imbalance, your provider will discuss various treatment options to find the one that makes the most sense for you and fits your lifestyle.

The team might prescribe oral hormones, hormone patches, a topical prescription ointment, or pellet therapy.

What are the benefits of hormone optimization?

Hormone optimization may offers various benefits, including:

  • Reduced risk of developing osteoporosis
  • Increased energy levels
  • Increased metabolic function
  • Increased sex drive
  • Lowered risk of diabetes 
  • Reduced risk of premature death

Hormone optimization can also improve your quality of life. When your hormones are in balance, you have more energy, sleep better, and think more clearly.

Is hormone optimization safe?

Hormone optimization is safe and usually well-tolerated. It’s normal to experience mild side effects, such as acne and bloating, during the first few weeks. These problems should subside once your body adjusts to the influx of hormones.
