At Womens Health Group Chicago, we believe in alleviating the discomforts associated with estrogen deficiencies through Estrogen Replacement Therapy. With diminished levels of estrogen during menopause, it could lead to various health issues such as osteoporosis and heart disease. Our individualized approach addresses these concerns by providing your body with carefully measured amounts of the hormone, helping bring balance back into your life.
Imbalances in progesterone can have significant effects on a woman’s health and her quality of life. The Progesterone replacement therapy provided at our clinic offers an effective solution for addressing symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes and sleep disturbances often seen during menopause or in case of other hormonal imbalances. As dedicated Women’s healthcare professionals, it is our responsibility to ensure that you receive the most tailored treatment based on your specific needs.
Understanding that every woman’s body is unique is central to how we operate at Womens Health Group Chicago. That’s why our Combination Hormone Therapy has been crafted precisely to cater different hormonal imbalance scenarios that women may face through various stages of their lives. This program thus combines estrogen and progesterone therapies for maximum effect, optimizing well-being while minimizing potential risks.
There are those who prefer natural alternatives to synthetic hormones. In respect of such preferences, our Bioidentical Hormone Replacement service uses plant-based hormones identical in chemical structure to those naturally produced by human bodies allowing them seamlessly integrating with existing bodily functions without introducing alien elements into your system – thereby reducing side-effects typically implicated in synthetic treatments.
Initiating any new medical regimen usually entails some level of concern regarding its impacts . At Womens Health Group Chicago, we take this concern very seriously. Through our dedicated Monitoring and Managing Side Effects program, we work closely with every patient to monitor their progress and account for any unusual signs or symptoms. Our priority is your comfort and safety.
At the Women’s Health Group of Chicago, not everything revolves around the traditional forms of medicine. Recognizing that sometimes a more holistic approach might be favourable, our skilled experts offer alternative therapies designed to harmonize your body’s natural rhythm using non-invasive techniques apart from dietary changes & lifestyle modifications which often prove invaluable in combating physical discomforts along emotional disturbances associated with hormonal fluctuation.

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.
