At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the transformative power of thoughtful and individualized care. That’s why our specialized practitioners offer personalized estrogen replacement therapy for women experiencing hormone imbalances or symptoms related to menopause. You can rely on our dedicated team to provide comprehensive evaluations, tailored treatment plans, and compassionate support throughout your journey, all in a comfort-centered environment.
Our clinic also proudly provides progesterone replacement therapy services for clients from Elk Grove and beyond. With this therapeutic approach, we aim to optimize hormone levels that may otherwise negatively influence overall wellness and quality of life. Our patients benefit immensely from this safe, clinically proven option which effectively addresses imbalance issues like mood swings, sleep disturbances, weight gain and hot flashes among others.
Womens Health Group Chicago emphasizes an integrative approach when it comes to hormonal health strategies: One such method is combination hormone therapy. This combines both estrogen and progesterone into one regimen to restore balance in your body’s endocrine system more comprehensively than monotherapy options do. Your well-being is paramount; hence you will receive exceptional healthcare underpinned by evidence-based practices throughout the course of your treatment plan.
We also specialize in bioidentical hormone replacement – a highly effective yet natural route designed to align closely with your body’s biology. Crafted from plant-derived compounds chemically identical with human hormones—this cutting-edge form of treatment allows us excellent precision while restoring equilibrium within the body using substances it fully recognizes as ‘self’. We make every effort to recognizing each woman’s unique physical needs and medical history before embarking on any BIHRT protocol.
Furthermore at Women’s Health Group Chicago, we’re committed to the holistic monitoring and management of any potential side effects you may encounter. Our comprehensive approach ensures that your safety is always prioritized throughout treatment. We regularly evaluate each patient’s progress to make necessary adjustments based on her individual response—all while keeping in close communication with you during every step of the process.
In addition to mainstream hormone replacement options, our clinic also provides a wealth of alternative therapies for those seeking more natural methods or whose medical histories require avoidance of hormonal interventions. From lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise optimization to herbal/phytoestrogenic supplements—our knowledgeable team stays up-to-date with advances in complementary medicine so as best cater your health needs from all possible angles.

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.
