At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the crucial role that hormones play in maintaining your overall well-being. One such treatment option that we offer is Estrogen Replacement Therapy (ERT). Often prescribed for patients who are undergoing menopause or had their ovaries removed, ERT can help manage symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disturbances and mood changes. We use advanced diagnostic tools to ensure you receive a personalized estrogen therapy plan tailored to suit your unique needs.
Our care at Womens Health Group Chicago extends to Progesterone replacement therapy as well. This specialized hormone helps regulate menstruation and prepares the body for pregnancy. When levels fall too low, it can lead to problems such as irregular periods or issues with conception. Our experts will provide individualized progesterone therapy strategies backed by years of medical experience and research, ensuring a gentle transition into this new phase of hormonal balance.
We’re proud to also specialize in Combination Hormone Therapy at our clinic – an evidence-based approach that combines different hormones together when required. Whether it’s due to menopause, cancer treatments or other conditions which alter your natural hormone production; combination hormonal treatment may provide relief from the related symptoms while restoring overall health and equilibrium within your body system.
If you’re seeking a more natural solution, consider our Bioidentical Hormone Replacement options here at Womens Health Group Chicago. These therapies utilize hormones chemically identical to those produced in your own body offering potentially fewer side effects than traditional synthetic hormone treatments.. By creating a match for what the body naturally produces; bioidentical hormones aim for seamless integration providing optimal patient comfort each step of the way.
The journey to hormonal balance is not without its complexities. That’s why at Womens Health Group Chicago, monitoring and managing side effects of hormone replacement therapy are integral components of patient care. Trust that our skilled medical team will closely monitor your physical responses, adjusting treatments accordingly for optimal health outcomes while ensuring a safe progression of your personalized therapy plan.
While hormone replacement therapies tend to be most commonly pursued among women seeking help with their hormones; We understand not everyone prefers this course of action or might respond best to it. Therefore, Womens Health Group Chicago also offers an array of alternative treatments suited for those searching non-hormonal solutions. Explore these therapeutic options right in the heart of Western Springs alongside caring professionals dedicated to supporting hormonal health and overall well-being from every angle.

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.
