Menopause is a natural part of life, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy. At Bethany Women’s Healthcare, Giuseppe F. Ramunno, MD, and our team understand the disruptive impact of menopausal changes. We’re here to help you find relief so you can feel like yourself again.
Menopause occurs when your ovaries stop producing estrogen and progesterone, which are the hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle. The transition typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, but can happen earlier or later.
As your hormone levels drop, your body enters a new stage of life that marks the end of your reproductive years. While this is a normal biological process, the changes can affect your comfort, sleep, and confidence.
The symptoms of menopause can vary widely from woman to woman. For example, some might experience hot flashes, night sweats, or sudden mood changes, in addition to vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, or a decrease in libido. Others may struggle with insomnia, brain fog, or weight gain.
Because every woman’s experience is unique, we believe treatment should be just as personal as the symptoms themselves.
One of the most effective treatments we offer is hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT works by replacing the estrogen and progesterone your body no longer makes, helping to restore balance and reduce many of the uncomfortable symptoms of menopause.
HRT replenishes these hormones, which can ease hot flashes, improve sleep, relieve vaginal dryness, and protect against bone loss. Many women also notice a better mood and increased energy.
