Hormone Therapy
Hormone therapy involves the administration of testosterone or estrogen to balance hormone levels within the body. Testosterone and estrogen play crucial roles in various bodily functions, including reproductive health, bone density, muscle mass, and overall well-being. Hormone therapy is used to address imbalances in the body’s natural hormones. It can effectively treat conditions such as menopause symptoms, low testosterone levels in men, gender dysphoria, and specific health issues related to hormonal imbalances. It’s recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms caused by hormone deficiency or imbalance.
Depending on the individual response, hormone therapy can show results within weeks to months and may last for several months or years. Patients may require ongoing monitoring and adjustments by healthcare providers. Coral Springs Med Spa offers specialized hormone therapy treatments to improve quality of life by addressing hormonal imbalances and related symptoms. A consultation can help discover personalized approaches to hormone therapy for individual benefit.
