Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand that hormonal imbalance can deeply impact your health and wellbeing. As such, we offer state-of-the-art Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT) to women residing in Oak Brook. When a woman’s estrogen levels drop due to advancement in age or medical conditions, it can lead to symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes and more. Our ERT involves administering the right amount of supplemental estrogen under the close supervision of an experienced team of healthcare providers.
We also provide Progesterone Replacement Therapy for women experiencing progesterone deficiency which often results in heavy menstrual bleeding or irregular periods. Our knowledgeable clinicians will assess your condition thoroughly before initiating therapy. With our personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs, Women’s Health Group Chicago assures you get back the balance necessary for optimum health and happiness.
Balance is crucial when it comes to hormones; hence our Combination Hormone Therapy gives attention to this important aspect of female health care. Estrogen without sufficient progesterone levels can expose a woman’s body different risks including endometrial hyperplasia or even cancer. By offering combination hormone therapy with carefully chosen doses of both hormones according to each woman’s unique needs ensures safety while achieving wellness goals.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones identical on a molecular level with those naturally occurring in your body. These are designed specifically with aim at alleviating menopausal symptoms or other conditions associated with hormone imbalances effectively while minimizing side effects as much as possible giving you ability feeling young again.
Healthcare doesn’t end once treatments commence: monitoring and managing potential side-effects is vital to the overall wellness plan. We closely follow each patient’s progress, tweaking treatment whenever necessary and addressing any concerns that might arise during therapy, offering comprehensive care aimed at achieving optimal hormonal balance and restoring quality of life.
While hormone replacement therapies play a key role in managing menopausal symptoms among other conditions, we are cognizant of the fact some women prefer or need alternative solutions. Whether it’s promoting healthier lifestyle choices, providing dietary guidelines or recommending non-hormonal medications, Womens Health Group Chicago offers holistic options for every woman seeking relief from their distressing symptoms.

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.
