At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand that menopause can lead to many discomforts due to hormonal imbalances. Our Estrogen Replacement Therapy is designed specifically for women who are experiencing low estrogen levels as a result of menopause or other health issues. This therapy not only alleviates symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats, but it also helps protect the body against various diseases like osteoporosis.
For those experiencing an imbalance in progesterone levels post-menopause, our Progesterone Replacement Therapy can provide significant relief. Imbalance in this hormone often leads to irregular menstrual cycles or even loss of periods altogether. At Womens Health Group Chicago, our expert team offers personalized assistance specific to your needs, ensuring you experience less disruptions in your daily routine brought on by these changes.
In certain cases where both estrogen and progesterone hormones fluctuate significantly during menopause, we recommend Combination Hormone Therapy. Our clinical professionals at Womens Health Group Chicago utilize cutting edge methods developed over years of practice so you receive safe and efficient treatment tailored to fit your unique bodily needs.
If synthetic hormones have led you down a path filled with adverse side effects or if they do not align with your personal preferences or beliefs, then Bioidentical Hormones may be just what you need. Sourced from natural plant compounds that identically match human hormones structure-wise, Bioidentical hormone replacement brings back the balance sought after with decreased risk involved.
While effectively managing hormonal imbalances forms our core approach at Womens Health Group Chicago, we prioritise patient safety above all else through vigilant monitoring for potential side effects accompanying any form of therapy. We are dedicated to ensuring a seamless treatment journey for you from start to end, guiding you through every step with expert care and advising on side effect management.
In addition to hormone replacement therapies, we also provide various alternative therapy options at Womens Health Group Chicago. Aiming for holistic wellness, these unconventional therapies can work in conjunction with more traditional treatments or serve as independent solutions depending upon your specific situation. In either case, comprehensive well-being is the goal for all North Center citizens coming into our clinic.

I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Mike and I cannot recommend him enough! His review of my (and my family’s) medical history was so in depth that we actually covered more than I ever have with my regular doctor. He went above and beyond to say the least. His approach is preventative, instead of just waiting for an issue to arise. Needless to say, I know I’m in good hands there.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jacquline Hollimon2024-08-12My first visit was a great experience.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment that uses hormones to replace the hormones that your body naturally produces but can decline with age. HRT is most commonly used to treat the symptoms of menopause, but it can also be used to treat other conditions, such as low testosterone levels in men.
There are two main types of HRT:
HRT can offer a number of benefits, including:
HRT can also have some risks, including:
HRT is not recommended for everyone. Some people who should not use HRT include people with a history of blood clots, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, stroke, or liver disease.
The length of time you use HRT will depend on your individual needs and risks. Most doctors recommend using HRT for the shortest amount of time necessary to relieve your symptoms.
There are a number of alternatives to HRT, including:
If you are considering HRT, it is important to talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of HRT and to choose the type of HRT that is right for you.
It is also important to note that HRT is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. What works for one woman may not work for another. It is important to work with your doctor to find the right HRT for you and to monitor your progress closely.
