In adulthood, hormones play an important role in many functions throughout the body, including metabolism, sexual health, mood, bone health, muscle mass, and energy. Hormone levels can change over time, particularly during perimenopause and menopause in women and with age-related testosterone changes in men. These changes may contribute to symptoms such as reduced sexual desire, changes in sexual function, mood changes, hot flashes, difficulty concentrating, changes in body composition, and low energy.
Hormonal symptoms don’t always mean that hormone replacement therapy is needed, since many health conditions can cause similar concerns. A comprehensive evaluation that considers symptoms, medical history, laboratory findings, medications, and other health factors can help determine whether hormone replacement therapy may be appropriate. When prescribed, treatment should be individualized and monitored by an experienced healthcare provider.
At Mirabile M.D., we provide personalized hormone therapy for women and men. Depending on individual needs, treatment options may include creams, troches, injections, capsules, hormone pellet therapy, or other prescribed methods. We work with each patient to determine an appropriate treatment approach based on their symptoms, hormone levels, health history, lifestyle, and treatment goals.
