The hormones responsible for female health & wellness
Estrogen and progesterone are key hormones essential for female health and wellness. Estrogen regulates the menstrual cycle, supports reproductive health, and maintains bone density. Progesterone prepares the uterus for pregnancy, regulates menstrual cycles, and supports early pregnancy. Together, these hormones influence mood, energy levels, and overall well-being. Imbalances can lead to symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and fatigue, which hormone therapy aims to alleviate, restoring balance and improving quality of life.
The impact of hormone imbalance on women
Hormone imbalances in women can lead to a variety of physical and emotional symptoms. During perimenopause and menopause, fluctuating levels of estrogen and progesterone can cause hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and decreased libido. Other symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, and vaginal dryness. These hormonal changes can disrupt sleep and daily activities, leading to increased stress and anxiety. Addressing these imbalances can help alleviate symptoms and restore balance during these transitional phases.

- Night sweats
- Mood swings
- Irritability

The types of hormone therapy we offer women
Hormone pellets
Hormone pellets are a convenient method for delivering consistent hormone levels. These small, subcutaneous pellets are inserted under the skin, typically in the hip or buttocks area, during a simple in-office procedure. Once in place, the pellets gradually release hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, directly into the bloodstream over a period of 3-6 months. This steady release helps maintain optimal hormone levels, reducing fluctuations that can cause symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, irritability, and decreased libido.
Scream Cream
Scream Cream is a topical medication specifically designed to treat Female Sexual Arousal Disorder (FSAD). This compounded cream is applied directly to the clitoral area, where it works by increasing blood flow and vasodilation to the application site. The enhanced blood flow leads to improved sensitivity, increased libido, better vaginal lubrication, and more intense orgasms. This personalized medication is prepared by a local compounding pharmacy, ensuring it meets the unique needs of each patient.
