Skip to content At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we specialize in Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT) designed to relieve menopausal symptoms and protect against osteoporosis. We understand that changes brought on by menopause can be challenging for many women in Hodgkins, causing hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings as your body adjusts to decreased estrogen levels. ERT involves regularly taking medication containing the female hormone estrogen, ultimately helping balance hormones and enhance overall health.
Our commitment extends to Progesterone Replacement therapy too. This custom-tailored treatment aids those dealing with unbalanced progesterone levels which is often identified as the root of several irregularities including consistent fatigue, weight gain or issues related to periods such as pain or heavy bleeding. Our specialists work diligently aiming at alleviating troubling symptoms through a balanced approach while providing maximum comfort ensuring you receive superior care throughout your journey.
Arriving at optimal hormonal stability sometimes requires adopting Combination Hormone Therapy—a strategic blend of both progesterone and estrogen therapies. Suitable for some women residing in Hodgkins who’ve attained menopause but still retain their uterus, this technique safeguards users from conditions like endometrial cancer arising due to surplus amounts of estrogen unchecked by progesterone. With meticulous monitoring and professional supervision from our distinguished medical team at Women’s Health Group Chicago, combination hormone therapy could offer significant relief.
With Bioidentical Hormonе Rеplacemеnt Therapу (BHRT), we empower women experiencing hormonal imbalance owing to aging or other factors like stress-induced adrenal exhaustion among others with another efficient alternative. These all-natural therapies feature plant-based compounds identical on a molecular level to human hormones reducing possible side-effects and promoting wider acceptance by the body, facilitating a safe return to hormonal equilibrium for women in Hodgkins.
At Women’s Health Group Chicago we champion health-centered, individualized care. The side-effects of such therapies might vary from person to person. We conduct vigilant tracking evaluating your therapy’s effectiveness together with possible adverse effects like tenderness at injection site or potential mood fluctuations caused due to hormone level shifts. Corresponding modifications are made where necessary ensuring treatment remains personalized and optimal.
A new era in personal healthcare also sees us offering alternative therapeutic options. For patients interested in exploring natural treatments or those facing hormone replacement risks—we provide professional guidance and holistic approaches including things like lifestyle changes, dietary management, herbal supplements etc aiding in striking a comfortable balance between traditional medicine and newer methodologies that caters to their specific needs as they seek crucial healthcare support within Hodgkins.

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.
