Understanding HRT
Hormone Replacement Therapy, also known as HRT, is a way to replenish declining hormones associated typically with aging. Hormone Replacement Therapy is used to treat symptoms associated with menopause in women and andropause in men. In menopause, common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness, mental fogginess, decreased energy, decreased libido, and desire.

In men, symptoms include decreased energy, loss of muscle mass, decreased libido, and decreased mental focus. As we age, both men and women experience a natural decline in their hormonal balance, affecting how they feel. Hormone Replacement Therapy restores hormones to their natural levels to reduce symptoms and restore vitality.
At David Ghozland, we treat the patient as a whole, looking at not only a comprehensive hormone panel but also how the patient feels and what they are looking to improve. Each treatment is customized to that individual patient’s unique needs.
