Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the distress that can come with menopause and other conditions that cause estrogen deficiency. To address these issues, we offer Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT). This treatment replenishes diminished estrogen levels to help manage symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings or vaginal dryness. As a leading specialty clinic serving Morton Grove residents, our highly trained clinicians employ modern science along with compassionate care in hormone therapy.
Sometimes hormonal imbalances are not only about reduced estrogen levels. Many women also experience declining progesterone quantities leading to uncomfortable complications such as irregular menstrual intervals or even trouble conceiving. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we offer Progesterone Replacement Therapy specifically designed for these challenges. Our proficient physicians ensure individualized treatments tailored to each woman’s unique physiology and lifestyle requirements.
In some instances, balancing multiple hormones is key to achieving optimal health outcomes. That’s why at Women’s Health Group Chicago; we provide Combination Hormone Therapy where both estrogen and progesterone are supplemented concurrently. This approach often achieves better results by combining strengths of both therapies while neutralizing potential side effects of a single hormone overexposure—providing overall balanced well-being for our patients around Morton Grove area.
Understanding that not all women respond similarly to traditional hormone options forms part of our holistic outlook at Womens Health Group Chicago which has led us to embrace Bioidentical Hormone Replacement (BHRT). BHRT uses natural hormones that have an identical chemical structure as human-made ones ensuring minimal side effects while synergizing flawlessly within your body system allowing you to achieve optimal hormonal equilibrium.
Despite their effectiveness, hormone therapies may have side effects. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we carefully monitor our patients for any adverse reactions to therapy through regular check-ups and lab tests. Our professional team assures personalized care incorporating diet advice, lifestyle adjustments and only uses the lowest necessary treatment dosages ensuring your safety at all times.
At Womens Health Group Chicago, we recognize that every woman is unique in her needs and preferences concerning health management strategies. That’s why apart from traditional interventions; we also provide alternative therapies designed to manage hormonal imbalances naturally without introducing external substances into the body systems. Through dietary changes, biophysical manipulation or herbal medicine among other options – you’re sure to find appropriate treatments for harmonious well-being.

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.
