After a thorough assessment, personalized doses are delivered through bioidentical creams or injections, which closely mimic the body’s own hormones. This targeted approach helps recalibrate your system, supporting more stable biological functions like metabolism, mood regulation, and sleep cycles.

For most women, HRT is an effective way of managing menopause symptoms. It also provides long-term health benefits, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and, for many, heart disease. The small risks of HRT are generally far outweighed by the benefits.

Before menopause, your ovaries produce three main types of hormones:
- Oestrogens (for example, oestradiol)
- Progestogens (for example, progesterone)
- Androgens (for example, testosterone)
The loss of oestrogens that results in most menopause symptoms. HRT aims to replace the declining levels of estrogen and helps to reduce your menopause symptoms. It also has long-term health benefits, more crucial than ever as women’s life expectancy is increasing.

There are 2 main types of HRT:
- Combined HRT (estrogen and progestogen)

There are several ways that estrogen can be taken, including:
- tablets – which can be taken by mouth

- estrogen gel – which is applied to the skin and absorbed

HRT is commonly prescribed for other medical conditions such as hormone deficiencies or menopausal symptoms.
What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment used to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause. As women approach menopause, their bodies produce less estrogen and progesterone, which can lead to various uncomfortable symptoms. HRT replaces these hormones to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
What are the types of HRT?
There are two main types of HRT: estrogen-only therapy and combination therapy (estrogen and progestin). Estrogen-only therapy is typically prescribed for women who have had a hysterectomy, while combination therapy is recommended for women who still have their uterus, as progestin helps protect against uterine cancer.
What are the benefits of HRT?
HRT can provide relief from menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. It may also help prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Some studies suggest that HRT may offer cardiovascular benefits when started early in menopause.
