At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we specialize in providing expert Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT) for the women of La Grange Park. Our team knows hormone balance is vital to your overall wellbeing, and when levels dip due to menopause or other health concerns, estrogen replacement can make a significant improvement. This therapy replenishes the diminished estrogen in your body combating issues such as hot flashes, mood swings, and bone density loss. We’re committed to help you regain comfort and control over your body through our customized treatments.
Problems associated with hormonal imbalance don’t stop at estrogen; progesterone plays a crucial role too – it mediates menstrual cycles and supports pregnancy. If you experience symptoms like irregular periods or intensified PMS signs indicative of progesterone deficiency, consider our Progesterone Replacement Therapy offering.

Uniquely designed to cater the intricate hormonal needs of women’s bodies, our Combination Hormone Therapy presents another compelling option addressed by skilled professionals at Women’s Health Group Chicago. With this method treating both low estrogen and progesterone simultaneously might be an ideal solution if both hormones need supplementation. The combined approach aims to restore balance holisticically rather than only addressing individual components which leads to lasting relief from bothersome menopausal 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.
