Both men and women can experience symptoms of hormonal imbalance as they age. Women often notice hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and difficulty sleeping, which could indicate the need for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women. Men may struggle with fatigue, decreased muscle mass, and low energy levels. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, a consultation with board-certified family nurse practitioner Ariel Gilmore at Younger Medical Health and Wellness in Scottsdale or Queen Creek, AZ can help determine if HRT is right for you.

What are the signs you need hormone replacement therapy?

Common signs of hormonal imbalance include persistent fatigue and low energy levels, mood swings, anxiety, or depression, as well as unexplained weight gain and difficulty losing weight. Many individuals also experience reduced libido, sexual dysfunction, and trouble sleeping, often accompanied by frequent night sweats. Additionally, brain fog and difficulty concentrating can make daily tasks feel overwhelming, further impacting overall well-being.

How does hormone replacement therapy work?

Hormone replacement therapy involves replenishing declining hormone levels through customized treatments, including bioidentical hormones, injections, patches, or creams. Testosterone replacement therapy is a common option for men experiencing low testosterone, helping improve energy, libido, and muscle strength.

Women may receive estrogen and progesterone therapy to ease menopause symptoms and support bone health. The team at Younger Medical Health and Wellness uses a patient-centered approach, making HRT in Queen Creek or Scottsdale, AZ convenient and accessible for those seeking relief.

Treatment options may include:

  • Testosterone replacement therapy for men to boost energy, muscle mass, and overall vitality
  • Estrogen and progesterone therapy for women to manage menopause symptoms
  • Bioidentical hormone therapy for a more natural approach to hormone balance
  • Pellet therapy, injections, or other treatments based on individual needs

What are the benefits of hormone replacement therapy for men and women?

When hormones are balanced, individuals often experience renewed energy, better mental clarity, and improved physical health. Male hormone replacement therapy can enhance stamina, boost confidence, and support muscle recovery. Women undergoing HRT often find relief from mood swings, sleep disturbances, and other menopausal symptoms.
