The benefits of HRT outweigh the side effects if there is any but feel free to discuss your concerns with your integrative doctor.
Since integrative medicine is patient centric, you must feel comfortable to inform your integrative doctor if you have history of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, womb cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes and liver diseases; therefore, the best treatment is selected for you in order to prevent complications.
You must also reveal any medication you are taking because some drugs such as birth control pills, anti seizure and anti depression medications can interfere with HRT. Even vitamins and minerals supplements can influence hormone replacement therapy.
What types of HRT are available?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapies are available in different ratios and they come in variety of forms such as pills, patches, creams, gels and injections which according to your unique circumstances can be taken all at once or in cycles until your deficiency is met or your symptoms vanish.
How long does the HRT take?
HRT is specifically designed for your unique needs; therefore, the duration of treatment differs and will only be planned after assessment of specialty lab test results in order to reveal the current state of your heath.
