Hormone replacement therapy or HRT, is a great solution for many people dealing with hormonal imbalance issues. We understand that it’s natural to have a lot of questions about HRT. So we’re here today to discuss the top five questions that many people have. Question one, what exactly is HRT? HRT is therapy that helps to restore your body’s hormonal imbalance, to get you feeling your overall best. These hormones naturally mimic what your body would normally make, making them very safe and effective. Your body essentially recognizes these hormones a lot easier. Question two, is HRT safe? Yes! So when monitored by a qualified medical provider. Hormone replacement therapy is considered very safe. We closely evaluate each individual’s medical history, symptoms, and hormone levels to see what options is best for you. In doing so, this helps to optimize your overall goals with HRT. Question three, will HRT increase my risk of cancer? One of the most common concerns is that link between HRT and cancer. The truth is, modern HRT, especially bioidentical HRT, has been shown to be much safer than those earlier forms. Research has shown that HRT does not increase your risk for cancer whenever it’s properly monitored by a medical healthcare provider. Question four, how soon will I see results? For most patients you start noticing a difference within about two weeks, such as improved energy, mood, libido.
