Hormone Therapy
Personalized care through perimenopause, menopause, & beyond.
Hormonal changes can affect everything — energy, mood, sleep, weight, focus, and overall quality of life. And too often, women are told their labs are "normal" while nothing about how they feel is normal.
Our hormone therapy services are designed to help you feel like yourself again by addressing the underlying shifts that happen during perimenopause and menopause. Care is personalized around you, starting with your labs, your symptoms, your goals, and what you've already tried.
Your Treatment Options
There's no single approach to hormone therapy. What works depends on where you are, what your labs show, and how your body is responding. Here's what we may recommend based on your evaluation.
Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT)
Supports estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels in women during perimenopause and menopause. Can help with fatigue, weight changes, hot flashes, brain fog, sleep issues, and mood shifts. Prescribed and adjusted based on your labs and how you're feeling over time.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)
Testosterone is an important hormone for both women and men. When levels are low, it can affect energy, metabolism, muscle mass, libido, mood, and focus. Therapy is prescribed and monitored based on medical history, lab work, and individual symptoms — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Additional Personalized Therapies
When appropriate, patients may have access to additional individualized treatments. Everything is guided by your data and adjusted as your needs evolve.
Every treatment plan is built around your medical history, labs, your symptoms, and your goals — and adjusted over time as your body responds. Nothing is prescribed without context.
Getting Started
-
Schedule your first visit with Amy. This appointment sets the foundation for everything that follows.
-
You'll complete a medical intake before your visit. During your appointment, Amy reviews your history, your medications, and the lab work needed to understand what's actually happening in your body. Many women are told their labs are normal while nothing about how they feel is normal. This visit is about looking past that and finding what's really driving your symptoms.
-
After your visit, Amy builds a plan around your labs, your symptoms, and your goals. That may include hormone therapy, testosterone support, or other targeted treatment, with monthly follow-ups to adjust as your body responds. Nothing is prescribed without context.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
You work directly with a board-certified Physician Assistant who specializes in hormone and metabolic care. This isn’t a large telehealth platform or a rushed primary care visit. Your care is personal, guided by experience, training, and regular follow-up.
-
If you’re dealing with symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, low energy, brain fog, or poor sleep, hormone therapy may help. We review your symptoms, medical history, and goals during your visit to decide what makes sense for you.
-
We prescribe estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone using pills, patches, and creams. Depending on your needs, we may use FDA-approved medications or compounded options.
-
Perimenopause is usually identified based on symptoms, age, and cycle changes. Lab work can help rule out other issues and provide a baseline, but hormones often fluctuate during this stage. We decide together what testing is helpful.
-
Many women feel better within a few weeks. Full benefits often take a few months as your body adjusts. We check in and adjust treatment as needed.
-
Hormone therapy is considered safe and effective for most healthy women, particularly those under 60 or within 10 years of menopause onset. As with any treatment, Amy reviews your individual health history to confirm it's appropriate for you — but for the majority of her patients, the benefits significantly outweigh the risks.
-
Some women use hormone therapy for a few years, others longer. We reassess regularly and adjust your plan based on how you feel and what your body needs.
-
Yes. Hormonal changes during menopause often lead to weight gain and insulin resistance. GLP-1 medications can help manage weight, improve blood sugar control, and support metabolic health.
-
Visits are direct-pay, but many insurance plans cover prescriptions and lab work. We can provide what your pharmacy needs to check coverage.
