What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment for menopause that typically includes estrogen, progesterone (or progestin), and sometimes testosterone. Estrogen helps alleviate symptoms like hot flushes and vaginal dryness, while progesterone helps balance the effects of estrogen on the uterus and can protect against certain risks. In some cases, testosterone may be added to help with symptoms like low libido or fatigue, though it is used less frequently and is typically prescribed based on individual needs.

At PHI Clinic, we offer both systemic HRT (delivered through pills, patches, or gels) and local treatments (like creams and pessaries) to provide the best solution based on your individual needs.

“Dr Ivona Paravic is brilliant and I can say for sure she saved me!!! I was struggling with perimenopause thinking that I am probably just tired but lack of energy and feeling that I lost my stability and I just didn’t like myself, person that I started to be! Dr Ivona suggested that we check the hormones and hello after blood test everything make sense! At the moment I am on treatment that she suggested and I am feeling like reborn woman, I can thank her enough honestly.”
“I am deeply grateful to Dr Ivona Paravic for the significant transformation she brought to my life. Three years ago, I contracted COVID-19 and was later diagnosed with long COVID. [...] My periods became irregular, I was constantly fatigued, struggling with brain fog, gaining weight, and experiencing joint pain. [...] Every doctor I visited dismissed my symptoms as normal. Meeting Dr Paravic was life-changing. She listened, took my symptoms seriously, and diagnosed me with perimenopause. After just a few weeks of treatment, I felt like myself again. [...] I'm endlessly grateful for her expertise and support.”

What to expect during your menopause consultation

During your initial consultation at PHI Clinic, our menopause experts will assess your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle. This thorough assessment allows us to recommend the most suitable type of treatment for you.

You may also undergo blood tests to evaluate your hormone levels, ensuring that your treatment plan is personalised for maximum effectiveness.

Is HRT right for me?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can be suitable for many women experiencing signs of menopause, including those in perimenopause, but it’s not right for everyone. We carefully assess your health history and current symptoms to determine if HRT is the best treatment for you. Women with certain health conditions, such as a history of breast cancer or blood clotting disorders, may not be suitable candidates for HRT.

Our specialists will discuss all available options with you, including whether HRT is appropriate for your stage of perimenopause, and help you make an informed decision.

Possible side effects of HRT

While HRT is generally safe, some women may experience side effects, especially when starting treatment. These can include:

Tender breasts
Bloating
Headaches
Mood changes

Most side effects are temporary and will subside after the first few months of treatment. If you experience persistent or severe side effects, we can adjust your treatment plan accordingly.

How long should I use HRT?

The length of time you will need to use HRT varies from woman to woman. Some women use it for a few years to manage symptoms, while others may use it long-term to address bone health. Our specialists will monitor your progress and adjust your treatment as needed during regular follow-up appointments.

Ongoing support and follow-up appointments

Once your HRT treatment plan is in place, regular follow-up appointments are essential to monitor your progress. During these visits, we will:

Assess the effectiveness of your treatment.
Adjust dosage or methods if necessary.
Address any concerns or side effects.
Ongoing support ensures that your treatment remains aligned with your changing needs.
