Hormones are responsible for many of the body’s most important functions. When your hormone levels are low, it can have an impact in many different areas of your health. Hormone management and replacement is an effective way to restore your hormone levels and put you at your best health.

What is Hormone Management?

Hormone management, or hormone replacement therapy, is a medical treatment that involves reintroducing biocompatible hormones into the body to supplement low levels of hormones like estrogen or testosterone. Many people experience low hormone levels as they age (especially women during menopause) but some people can have genetic conditions that cause low hormone levels.

What are the Symptoms of Low Hormone Levels?

Low hormone levels can negatively impact your body in many different ways, including:

  • Low energy and fatigue
  • Decreased libido
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Hot flashes
  • Difficulty with concentration or memory
  • Loss of muscle or bone mass

Hormone Management Outlook

Hormone levels are easily manageable with the help of your urologist. However, it’s important to treat any underlying causes and make the right lifestyle changes like exercising more, managing your mental health, and optimizing your diet. Hormone replacement therapy is a long-term process, but your urologist can help at every step.

What are My Treatment Options?

Your treatment begins by testing your hormone levels to determine the severity and what might be causing low levels. If the cause is an underlying condition, your urologist may recommend you partner with a gynecologist or endocrinologist. Your urologist can also discuss ways to supplement your hormones with hormone replacement therapy. There are many different forms of hormone replacement, including:

  • Implants
  • Oral tablets
  • Gels
  • Skin patches

Your urologist can help you determine the right form for your lifestyle.
