You're not crazy. Your hormones are changing.

Perimenopause and menopause affect everything ... mood, sleep, skin, weight, energy. Hormone therapy can help you feel like yourself again.

Sound familiar?

Everything is different. And no one warned you.

  • Hot flashes that hit at the worst possible moments.
  • Night sweats that leave you soaked and exhausted.
  • Sleep that used to be easy is now impossible.
  • Brain fog so thick you forget why you walked into a room.
  • Mood swings that make you feel like a stranger to yourself.
  • Weight gain around your middle that doesn't respond to diet or exercise.
  • Skin that's suddenly dry, dull, and aging faster.
  • Libido that disappeared without a forwarding address.

What's actually happening

This is hormonal. Not personal.

Starting in your late 30s or early 40s, your ovaries begin producing less estrogen and progesterone. This transition ... perimenopause ... can last 4-10 years before menopause (defined as 12 months without a period).

These hormones don't just affect reproduction. They influence your brain, bones, heart, skin, metabolism, mood, and sleep. When they fluctuate and decline, everything feels off.

This isn't weakness. It's biology. And it's treatable.

How we can help

Hormone replacement that works with your body.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) restores the hormones your body is no longer producing adequately. We use bioidentical hormones ... hormones that are chemically identical to what your body naturally makes.

Delivery options include:

  • Pellet therapy: Small pellets inserted under the skin release consistent hormone levels for 3-4 months. No daily pills or creams to remember.
  • Topical creams: Applied daily, absorbed through skin.
  • Oral options: Daily pills for those who prefer it.

We'll test your hormone levels, discuss your symptoms, and create a personalized protocol. Hormone therapy isn't one-size-fits-all.

What hormone therapy can address

Relief is possible. For most symptoms.

  • Hot flashes
  • Night sweats
  • Sleep disruption
  • Mood changes
  • Anxiety
  • Brain fog
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Painful intercourse
  • Low libido
  • Fatigue
  • Joint pain
  • Skin changes

Not every symptom responds equally, and HRT isn't right for everyone. But for many women, it's transformative.

Hormones + your skin

Why your skincare stopped working. And what helps.

Estrogen is essential for collagen production, skin thickness, hydration, and elasticity. As estrogen declines:

  • Collagen production drops 30% in the first 5 years of menopause
  • Skin becomes thinner, drier, and more prone to wrinkles
  • Your usual products stop working as well
  • Healing slows down

Hormone replacement can slow these skin changes. Combined with professional skin treatments, you can address aging from the inside out AND outside in.
