What Is Menopause?

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years, typically occurring in her late 40s to early 50s. It’s a natural biological process characterized by the cessation of menstruation due to declining levels of estrogen and progesterone. This hormonal shift brings about various symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood changes. Since the symptoms of menopause occur due to hormonal changes, we can offer personalized solutions to restore optimal hormone balance and help you restore wellness.

Common Symptoms of Menopause:

  • Hot flashes: sudden waves of heat throughout the body
  • Night sweats: excessive sweating during sleep
  • Mood swings: sudden changes in emotions, including irritability and sadness
  • Vaginal dryness: lack of moisture in the vaginal area, leading to pain during intercourse
  • Insomnia: difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
  • Fatigue: feeling tired or lacking energy
  • Decreased libido: reduced interest in sexual activity
  • Memory problems: difficulty with concentration and memory recall
  • Joint pain: aches and stiffness in joints
  • Changes in hair and skin: thinning hair, dry skin, and changes in texture

Types of Hormone Replacement Therapy for Menopause

Progesterone Medication

Progesterone medication provides synthetic progesterone to women experiencing menopause. Progesterone plays a vital role in regulating the menstrual cycle and supporting pregnancy. During menopause, its levels decline, leading to irregular periods and other symptoms. Progesterone medication helps balance hormone levels, reducing symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and insomnia. By restoring hormonal equilibrium, these pills alleviate discomfort.

Testosterone & Estradiol Creams

Testosterone and estradiol creams are hormone replacement therapies used to alleviate symptoms of menopause in Virginia Beach. Testosterone is present in women in smaller amounts and contributes to libido, mood, and energy levels. Estradiol, a form of estrogen, helps regulate bodily functions, including temperature control and bone health. These creams are applied topically to replenish hormone levels and address symptoms like low libido, vaginal dryness, and mood changes.

BioTE Hormone Pellet Therapy

BioTE hormone pellet therapy involves the insertion of small hormone pellets beneath the skin, delivering a consistent dose of bioidentical hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, over several months. These bioidentical hormones mimic those naturally produced by the body, effectively alleviating menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and low libido. By maintaining hormonal balance, BioTE pellet therapy offers long-lasting relief.
