Hormone Replacement Therapy in Jacksonville, FL
Hormone Replacement Therapy is a treatment designed to alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances, particularly during menopause. It involves the administration of hormones such as estrogen and progesterone to replace those that body no longer produces in sufficient quantities.
HRT can help reduce common menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and vaginal dryness. Additionally, it may provide benefits for bone health, reducing the risk of osteoporosis. By carefully, tailoring the therapy to the individual needs, HRT can significantly improve quality of life and overall well being for many women.
