Female Hormone Replacement Therapy
Restore Balance. Improve Quality of Life.
AlphaCare’s Female Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) program is a medically supervised treatment designed to restore estrogen and progesterone to physiologic levels. Our goal is to relieve symptoms of hormonal decline while supporting long-term health and safety.
What Is Female HRT?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to restore estrogen and, when needed, progesterone to physiologic levels. The goal is symptom relief and long- term health support—not cosmetic enhancement or anti-aging therapy. Estrogen and progesterone regulate temperature, sleep, mood, brain function, bone strength, heart health, and vaginal and urinary wellness. During perimenopause and menopause, these hormones decline or fluctuate, often affecting daily life.
Symptoms vary between women and may include:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Sleep disruption or insomnia
- Anxiety, mood swings, or depression
- Brain fog or memory difficulties
- Fatigue and low energy
- Vaginal dryness, pain with intercourse, or urinary symptoms
- Joint aches and muscle stiffness
AlphaCare primarily uses transdermal estrogen (patches or gels) and oral micronized
progesterone. These methods are chosen for their safety profile, effectiveness, and ease of
use.
Local vaginal estrogen may be used for women with primarily vaginal or urinary symptoms.
Many women notice improvement in hot flashes and sleep within several weeks. Mood and cognitive symptoms may improve over 1–3 months. Genitourinary symptoms often improve gradually with consistent use.
Treatment is personalized and adjusted based on symptom response and monitoring.
