Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Hormone therapy is a proven and effective way to manage many of the symptoms of menopause. Our providers offer hormone therapy and other evidence-based treatments to manage hot flashes, night sweats, irregular bleeding, vaginal dryness, sleep issues, urinary incontinence, fatigue, and sexual health challenges.
Pelvic and Bladder Health
Menopause can impact pelvic floor strength and bladder health. It can lead to incontinence, pelvic pain, or other challenges. Our pelvic floor center offers targeted therapies designed to address these issues. We also work to improve your comfort and restore your quality of life. Whether you need physical therapy, medical treatments, or specialized care, we’re here to help you feel your best.

Menopause isn’t just a physical transition. It can bring emotional changes, too. Our mental health specialists provide compassionate care to help you manage mood shifts related to hormonal changes. If needed, we also offer prescription options to reduce severe symptoms and make sure you feel supported.
Support for Menopause Symptoms
Menopause brings changes that can impact your body, mind, and daily life. We offer a number of supportive services to help you navigate this transition with confidence and care.
- Education and counseling – Understanding menopause is the first step to managing it. Through one-on-one support, our providers help you navigate what to expect. We empower you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions about your health.
- Lifestyle and preventive care – Menopause is unique for each person. Our midlife health assessments identify ways to improve your overall wellness. Whether that is a new exercise routine or dietary recommendations, small changes can make a big difference in how you feel.
- Sleep solutions – A good night’s rest is important for your well-being. Yet sleep issues are common during menopause. Our pulmonary and sleep medicine specialists work with you to improve your rest and overall wellness.
- Women’s health services – Preventive care, including bone density scans, pelvic exams, pap smears, and breast cancer screenings, is a cornerstone of our approach. We provide comprehensive screenings to support your overall health.
