Women's HRT Options

Women’s Hormone Health & Optimization

Hormones influence far more than your menstrual cycle. They affect energy, mood, sleep, metabolism, weight, bone density, muscle mass, sexual health, fertility, cardiovascular health, cognition, and how you feel in your body.

At Integrated Wellness, women’s hormone care is approached across the entire lifespan—from reproductive years through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond. The goal is not simply to treat a laboratory number or prescribe hormones because of age. It is to understand your symptoms, health history, goals, metabolic health, and hormone patterns and develop an individualized plan.

Hormone Care May Include:

Estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid and adrenal optimization

When appropriate, hormone therapy may be used to address symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, mood changes, declining bone density, loss of muscle mass, and other symptoms associated with changing hormone levels.

Treatment options may include transdermal estradiol, oral or topical progesterone, testosterone therapy, and other individualized approaches based on your medical history, symptoms, preferences, and risk factors.

Perimenopause & Menopause Care

You do not have to wait until your periods completely stop to discuss hormone changes. Perimenopause may begin years before menopause and can affect sleep, mood, weight, menstrual patterns, sexual function, and overall well-being.

PCOS & Metabolic Hormone Health
Polycystic ovary syndrome is closely connected with insulin resistance, androgen balance, fertility, weight, and metabolic health. Treatment may include nutrition and lifestyle interventions, weight-management strategies, medications, supplements when appropriate, and evaluation of the underlying hormonal and metabolic picture.

Endometriosis & Menstrual Hormone Concerns
For women experiencing painful periods, abnormal bleeding, pelvic symptoms, or known endometriosis, hormone evaluation can be incorporated into a broader treatment plan while coordinating with gynecology or other specialists when needed.

Fertility & Preconception Hormone Evaluation
Hormones, thyroid function, metabolic health, nutrition, weight, and ovulatory patterns all influence fertility. Integrated Wellness can help identify factors that may deserve attention and work alongside fertility specialists when higher-level reproductive care is necessary.

Weight & Metabolic Health
Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, insulin, thyroid hormones, cortisol, sleep, and muscle mass can all influence body composition and metabolic health. Hormone optimization may therefore be one part of a comprehensive obesity and weight-management strategy rather than treating weight as an isolated problem.

Advanced Hormone Testing

Integrated Wellness is also a DUTCH provider through Precision Analytical. DUTCH testing can provide a more detailed look at sex hormones, hormone metabolites, cortisol patterns, and other aspects of hormone physiology when advanced testing is clinically appropriate.

Not every woman needs extensive hormone testing, and more testing is not automatically better. Testing is selected based on your symptoms and clinical situation.

Hormone Health Is Lifelong Health

Hormones interact with nearly every major system in the body. Optimizing hormone health may also mean addressing sleep, nutrition, exercise, stress, insulin resistance, bone health, pelvic health, sexual health, and cardiovascular risk.

At Integrated Wellness, the focus is not on making every woman fit the same hormone “number.” It is about helping you understand what is happening in your body and creating a thoughtful, individualized plan to help you feel and function your best throughout every stage of life.
