Comprehensive Menopausal Management Services:
Menopause is a natural biological process that typically occurs in women between the ages of 45 and 55, signaling the end of reproductive function. During this time, hormonal fluctuations can lead to a variety of symptoms, ranging from hot flashes and night sweats to mood swings and vaginal dryness. At Sievert and Walsh Gynecology, we offer a wide range of menopausal management services to address these symptoms and improve your overall quality of life. Our services include:
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): Hormone replacement therapy involves supplementing the body with hormones such as estrogen, progesterone and/or testosterone to alleviate menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. Our experienced gynecologists will work with you to determine the most appropriate HRT regimen based on your individual needs and health history.
Non-Hormonal Therapies: In addition to HRT, we offer non-hormonal treatment options for managing menopausal symptoms, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), gabapentin and neurokinin 3 receptor antagonists (fezolinetant). These medications can help alleviate symptoms such as mood swings, anxiety, and insomnia without the use of hormones.
Vaginal Rejuvenation: Menopause can lead to changes in vaginal health, including vaginal dryness, itching, and discomfort during intercourse. We offer medications and other regimens that help rejuvenate vaginal tissue, improve lubrication, and enhance sexual satisfaction.
Bone Health Management: During menopause, declining estrogen levels can increase the risk of osteoporosis, a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones. Our team recommends and interprets bone density scans (DEXA), and offers personalized treatment plans to help prevent and manage osteoporosis through lifestyle modifications, nutritional counseling, and medication when necessary.
