Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Services in Philadelphia

As men and women get older, they may have less energy, more anxiety, unexpected weight gain, and disruptive sleep. Although it’s easy to just assume these are the inevitable effects of aging, that may not be the case! The real culprit might be a hormone imbalance, which is a treatable condition. We assess both men and women for hormonal symptoms and provide Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) in our Villanova office.

What are the Signs of Hormone Imbalance?

Both men and women experience hormone imbalance. Many people simply attribute their symptoms to general stress, being too busy, getting older, or not paying close enough attention to their health. Although all these things influence overall wellness, they might not be the root cause of the problem. By checking hormone levels, we can discover and treat the real issue.

Signs of Hormone Imbalance in Women:

• Irregular periods
• Unexplained weight gain that won’t go away
• Hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings
• Difficulty sleeping
• Chronic fatigue
• Low libido
• Osteoporosis

Signs of Hormone Imbalance in Men:

• Declining libido or erectile dysfunction
• Abdominal weight gain
• Lack of focus and low energy
• Moodiness, anxiety, or depression
• Difficulty building or maintaining muscle

How Does Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Work?

Hormone replacement therapy introduces synthetic or bioidentical hormones into the bloodstream to compensate for the declining levels.

Bioidentical hormones are made from plant sources using the same molecular structure as the body’s natural hormones.

Synthetic hormones are developed in a laboratory setting and are better known as the traditional treatment for menopause symptoms.

HRT is delivered under the supervision of one of our highly skilled medical providers. We pair hormone therapy with blood work and other diagnostic tests to customize the treatment for each patient.

Hormone replacement therapy has a high safety rating, and it may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, and osteoporosis. Some individuals experience side effects during the early phases of treatment such as weight gain, acne, mood swings, breast tenderness, and menstrual changes. Our team works closely with every patient to manage side effects and restore hormones to the right balance. With ongoing treatment and monitoring, most patients are restored to their preferred energy level, libido, weight, and mood.
