What is HRT and Why is it so important.

Written By Lora Conover

Hormones play a vital role in nearly every function of the body — from metabolism and sleep to mood, energy, and reproductive health. As we age, hormone levels naturally begin to decline, which can lead to a wide range of symptoms that impact both daily life and long-term wellness.

That’s where Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) comes in. 🌿

What is HRT?

HRT is a treatment designed to restore balance by supplementing the hormones your body is no longer producing at optimal levels. For women, this often includes estrogen, progesterone, and sometimes testosterone.

By bringing hormones back into balance, HRT can help alleviate common symptoms of hormonal decline such as:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Mood swings and irritability

  • Low energy and fatigue

  • Vaginal dryness or discomfort

  • Difficulty losing weight or changes in body composition

  • Reduced libido

Why HRT is So Important for Women

While symptoms like hot flashes are often the most noticeable, hormonal changes can affect much more than comfort — they can influence long-term health. Optimizing hormones with HRT may:

  • Support bone health: Lower estrogen levels can accelerate bone loss and increase the risk of osteoporosis.

  • Protect heart health: Balanced hormones may help reduce cardiovascular risks.

  • Improve cognitive function: Some women report improved memory, clarity, and focus with HRT.

  • Enhance quality of life: Restoring energy, mood, and sleep often leads to feeling like yourself again.

Every woman’s experience is unique. The decision to begin HRT should be made in partnership with a trusted medical provider who can evaluate your symptoms, lab results, and overall health goals.
