Hormone Replacement Therapy For Women & Men

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a rejuvenating solution for hormonal imbalances in both men and women. At Fountain of You MD, we specialize in restoring vitality through tailored treatments, ensuring every individual feels their best at every life stage. This article offers comprehensive information about female hormone replacement therapy (FHRT) and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and debunks persistent myths.

Female hormone replacement therapy (FHRT) is a medical intervention designed to restore hormonal balance in women. As women age, essential hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone naturally decline, leading to symptoms like hot flashes and decreased libido. FHRT supplements these diminishing hormones, alleviating associated symptoms and enhancing overall health. By optimizing hormone levels, FHRT helps women regain vitality and improve their quality of life.

• Reduces menopause symptoms
• Improves bone density
• Enhances sexual desire and pleasure
• Reduces anxiety and depression
• Improves sleep quality
• Increases energy levels
• Enhances cognitive function
• Reduces risk of heart disease and stroke
• Improves skin elasticity
• Promotes overall health and well-being

At Fountain of You MD, FHRT is administered through topically applied creams, specifically progesterone, testosterone, and occasionally, estradiol. These creams are absorbed through the skin, directly entering the bloodstream, providing a safe and effective method to supplement hormone levels. Each treatment is personalized, ensuring optimal and balanced hormone levels, thereby aiding women in regaining vitality.

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment to address declining testosterone levels in men. As men age, a natural reduction in testosterone can lead to symptoms like fatigue, decreased libido, and muscle loss. TRT involves supplementing the body with bioidentical testosterone, which mirrors the testosterone naturally produced. By restoring testosterone levels, TRT improves energy, muscle strength, and overall well-being, helping men feel rejuvenated and vibrant.

• Increased sex drive and erectile function
• Improved mood and cognitive function
• Enhanced muscle mass and strength
• Reduced body fat
• Improved bone density
• Lowered risk of osteoporosis
• Decreased risk of heart disease
• Enhanced insulin sensitivity
• Boosted energy levels and overall well-being
• Restored youthful levels of testosterone

At Fountain of You MD, TRT is provided using bioidentical testosterone, ensuring a natural match to the body’s own hormone. This testosterone is introduced into the body through various methods, including topical creams, gels, or injections. Each method is chosen based on the individual’s needs and health profile. A thorough evaluation precedes the treatment, ensuring a tailored and effective approach to restoring optimal testosterone levels.

Myth: Only Older Men Need TRT
Truth: Contrary to popular belief, younger men can also experience low testosterone levels. Age isn’t the sole factor; lifestyle and health conditions also play a role.

Myth: TRT Leads to Aggressive Behavior
Truth: While testosterone is often linked to aggression, TRT aims to restore natural levels, not exceed them, making drastic behavioral changes unlikely.

Myth: HRT is Only for Post-Menopausal Women
Truth: HRT can benefit women facing hormonal imbalances at various life stages due to age or lifestyle factors, and not just postmenopausal women.
