As you enter menopause, your ovaries produce significantly less estrogen and progesterone. These changes in hormone levels can lead to a variety of uncomfortable symptoms, including:

Dry mouth, eyes, or skin
Vaginal dryness or discomfort during intimacy
Trouble sleeping or insomnia
Mood changes, mild sadness, or irritability
Night sweats or sudden hot flashes
Urinary urgency
Warm flashes throughout the day

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) helps restore hormone levels and can relieve many of these menopausal symptoms, improving comfort and quality of life.

At Koster Clinic, we specialize in tailoring HRT plans to your individual needs, using advanced testing, expert guidance, and compassionate care to ensure your comfort and confidence every step of the way.

TYPES OF THERAPY

Understanding Your Hormone Replacement Therapy Options

Learn how different HRT options can help relieve menopausal symptoms and support your overall well-being.

Estrogen Therapy (ET)

Estrogen therapy involves taking estrogen alone. Doctors typically recommend a low daily dose, which can be administered as a patch, tablet, cream, vaginal ring, gel, or spray. The goal is to use the smallest effective dose to relieve menopausal symptoms and, if needed, help prevent osteoporosis.

Combination Therapy (EPT)

Combination therapy, also known as estrogen-progesterone therapy (EPT), combines estrogen with progesterone or progestin, a synthetic form of progesterone. This approach helps balance hormone levels and effectively addresses menopausal symptoms, particularly for women who still have a uterus.
