Horomone Replacement

In men, HRT typically involves testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to treat symptoms of low testosterone levels, such as decreased libido, fatigue, loss of muscle mass, mood swings, and erectile dysfunction. Testosterone can be administered through injections, patches, gels, or pellets. While TRT can improve quality of life and physical performance, it also comes with risks, including cardiovascular issues, sleep apnea, prostate enlargement, and infertility. As with women, it’s important for men to undergo thorough medical evaluation and regular monitoring while on TRT to mitigate potential side effects and ensure the therapy is safe and effective.

Hormone Replacement Therapy for women primarily involves the administration of estrogen and progesterone to alleviate symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. It can also help prevent osteoporosis. However, HRT in women carries risks, including an increased likelihood of breast cancer, blood clots, stroke, and heart disease. HRT can be administered via pills, patches, gels, or vaginal creams, and the choice of therapy depends on the individual’s symptoms, health risks, and preferences. It’s crucial for women to discuss these factors with their healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate approach.

HRT is available in several forms, such as pills, patches, gels, creams, and vaginal inserts. A member of the HarleyMeds medical staff will determine the type, dosage, and duration of treatment based on your individual needs and health history.
