Ladies, can we be honest for a second? Hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, zero libido, not sleeping. If that sounds like your life right now, it might be your hormones. And no, you don’t have to just “push through it.
What are the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause?
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Mood swings, anxiety, irritability
- Weight gain that ignores diet and exercise
- Low libido
- Poor sleep and 3 a.m. wake-ups
- Brain fog and low energy
These symptoms can start in your late 30s or early 40s, years before your period actually stops. That stretch is perimenopause, and it’s when many women are told “everything looks normal” while feeling anything but.
How is HRT different at Ageless Physique?
We look at your full hormone picture: estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, and more, then build a plan around where YOU are. Whether that’s perimenopause, menopause, or just feeling off, the protocol is tailored to your body and adjusted as your labs and symptoms change. Options include bioidentical creams and pellets that deliver a steady dose for months at a time.
Is hormone therapy safe for women?
Modern bioidentical hormone therapy, prescribed from comprehensive labs and monitored over time, looks very different from the one-dose synthetic regimens that made headlines decades ago. The right question isn’t “is HRT safe,” it’s “is it right for me,” and that answer comes from your labs, history, and goals.
Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between perimenopause and menopause?
Perimenopause is the transition, often 4 to 10 years, when hormones fluctuate and symptoms begin. Menopause is confirmed after 12 months without a period. Symptoms are treatable in both stages.
Can HRT help with weight gain?
Hormone balance removes a major roadblock. Combined with medical weight loss support, most women finally see diet and exercise work again.
How soon will I feel a difference?
Many women notice better sleep and fewer hot flashes within weeks, with fuller benefits over 2 to 3 months.
