At Womens Health Group Chicago, we believe in delivering high-quality reproductive healthcare to all women. One of our specialty services includes Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT). ERT is an effective way to manage the symptoms of menopause by replenishing decreased estrogen levels. It can alleviate discomforts like hot flashes and night sweats while protecting your body against osteoporosis. Our dedicated team of healthcare providers will work closely with you to design a therapeutic treatment plan tailored specifically for your health concerns and lifestyle.
Balancing hormonal levels is key in maintaining optimal wellbeing among women, especially during perimenopause or post-menopause phase. Progesterone replacement therapy at Womens Health Group Chicago aids precisely in that aspect. We leverage this transformational medical process which helps reduce symptoms such as mood swings, sleep disturbances, and weight gain associated with progesterone loss over time. Creating a comfortable journey towards better health is what we prioritize above all else.
To make it further comprehensive and personalized, our clinic offers Combination Hormone Therapy (CHT) – a modality combining
both estrogen and progesterone replacement therapies harmoniously designed for those experiencing heavy bleeding or other severe symptoms due to hormone imbalance caused by menopause . With CHT’s help from our seasoned professionals here at Women’s Health Group Chicago, every woman has the opportunity to restore her peace of mind through alleviating physical discomforts related to hormonal changes.
Our Bioidentical Hormone Replacement therapy signals another critical segment within our holistic approach. Unlike traditional synthetic hormones often used in HRT procedures these are chemically identical those produced naturally by your own body- paving way for better acceptance response fewer side effects compared structurally different drugs intake healthy balance is our ultimate aim and experts at Womens Health Group Chicago are committed towards quality.
With all of these therapies, patient welfare comes first. As part of our approach, we not only administer treatments but also keenly monitor and manage any side effects that may arise with different hormone therapy procedures. Regular follow-ups help us track your progress ensuring an optimal therapy response ensuring every step you take towards a balanced hormonal level is a safe journey.
At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand that each woman has unique needs and preferences when it comes to her health. Therefore apart from conventional treatments, we also offer alternative therapeutic options such as plant-based therapies or lifestyle modifications for those wanting a non-hormonal route in treating their perimenopausal symptoms.

April Susmarski2024-08-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient and the care I received there from all of the staff really impressed me. 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.

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.
