Skip to content The dedicated team at Womens Health Group Chicago understands the importance of balance in every woman’s health. One of our cutting-edge services includes Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT). This therapy involves replacing hormones that are at a lower level as you approach menopause, helping to ease moderate to severe hot flashes and symptoms of menopause. ERT can also help prevent bone loss and fracture when used in the long term for postmenopausal women.
With Progesterone Replacement Therapy, we strive to restore your hormonal balance, conducive to your well-being. As many females in Lombard experience low progesterone levels leading to various physical and psychological problems such as insomnia, anxiety disorders, and more, our progesterone replacement therapy can combat these issues effectively.
Understandably, dealing with hormone imbalances often requires all-encompassing therapeutic intervention. For this purpose, Womens Health Group Chicago offers Combination Hormone Therapy for women living in Lombard area – a service where both estrogen and progestin are prescribed together either continuously or sequentially based on individual needs. We recommend this specialized treatment after thorough examination identifying it is the most suitable solution for your current health condition.
At Womens Health Group Chicago we understand everyone’s bodies react differently; hence provide personalized treatments like Bioidentical Hormone Replacement therapy which embraces such diversity effortlessly by providing customized care. The bioidentical hormones have an exact molecular match with naturally occurring ones present in our body making them less likely causing side effects unlike their synthetic counterparts – An impeccable choice for those who prioritize natural approach towards improving quality of life.
Despite its numerous benefits hormone replacement therapies may occasionally pose certain side effects ranging from mild to severe. Professional assistance and close monitoring at our clinic ensures such situations are effectively managed. Our experts understand the importance of making your therapy a pleasant experience, therefore we closely monitor your health status sessions after sessions providing personalized care that accommodates changes as they arise.
We also offer Alternative Therapies for those women who may not be ideal candidates for hormone replacement therapies or prefer more natural methods.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment that uses hormones to replace the hormones that your body naturally produces but can decline with age.

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.
