Menopause treatment Brazoria, TX

Understanding Menopause

Menopause is a natural transition that all women experience as they reach middle age. It marks the end of a woman's reproductive years and is diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period. The years leading up to menopause are called perimenopause and can start 8-10 years before menopause.

During perimenopause and menopause, levels of estrogen and progesterone fluctuate and eventually decline. This directly impacts the body in many ways:

Decreased estrogen can also lead to more serious long-term health effects like osteoporosis and heart disease when left untreated. The wide variety of symptoms associated with menopause makes it clear that hormone therapy can provide tremendous benefits for women going through this change.

Diagnosing Hormone Imbalances

The first step in developing an integrated hormone therapy plan is diagnosing the extent of hormonal decline a woman is experiencing during perimenopause and menopause. This is determined through analysis of:

Symptoms

- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Vaginal dryness
- Changes in mood
- Trouble sleeping

Medical History

- Reproductive health
- Menstrual cycle changes
- Family history of chronic diseases

Lab Tests

- Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
- Estradiol
- Progesterone
- Testosterone
- Thyroid (TSH, free T3 & T4)
- Vitamin D

The practitioners at Prime Hormone Solutions are experts in interpreting lab results to determine appropriate hormone therapy protocols customized for each patient. We provide all necessary testing at our clinic in Brazoria.

Bioidentical HRT Treatment Protocols

The foundation of most menopause treatment plans from Prime Hormone Solutions consists of bioidentical estradiol and progesterone which are identical at a molecular level to what the ovaries produce.

Estradiol is available in pills, patches, topical creams/gels, vaginal rings, and pellet implants placed under the skin. Prime Hormone Solutions practitioners help determine which option is best for each woman based on her symptoms, preferences, and medical history.

Most women are also prescribed micronized progesterone capsules due to the protective effects it provides for uterine health. Once again there are multiple options women can choose from including oral capsules, vaginal suppositories, topical creams, and more based on her needs and goals.

Testosterone and/or DHEA may be added for some women based on symptoms and lab results. These help restore feelings of vitality, improve libido, build lean muscle mass, support bone density, and enhance mood.

Lifestyle Recommendations

In addition to hormone therapy, making certain lifestyle changes can alleviate menopausal symptoms and have long-lasting impacts on health. Prime Hormone Solutions provides patients with tailored advice on:

Implementing positive lifestyle changes enhances hormone therapy results. We also have a psychologist available for counseling if women want extra support in managing mental health.
