Menopause is a natural transition in a woman's life when her periods stop permanently and she can no longer get pregnant naturally. The changes associated with menopause start several years before the last period. On average, women reach menopause around the age of 51, but it can happen earlier or later.
The most common signs and symptoms associated with menopause include:
If several or a combination of these symptoms are experienced persistently, it is important to see a menopause specialist for proper evaluation and treatment.
Getting timely diagnosis and treatment for menopause is critical because it can help prevent or manage troublesome short-term symptoms as well as long-term health risks.
Some key benefits include:
By properly diagnosing and treating the hormonal imbalances associated with menopause under expert care, many women can continue living active, healthy and vibrant lives.
With Renewed Balance Clinic clinic in Lackawanna, women have access to top menopause specialists led by Dr. Jane Smith, a nationally recognized expert in women's hormone health and personalized bioidentical hormone therapy.
Our compassionate providers focus specifically on perimenopause and menopause care. We take time to understand a woman's unique symptoms and health history, and develop customized treatment plans using the latest medical research and advanced testing.
We offer comprehensive menopause treatment including:
Our goal is to develop a close partnership with each woman to guide her through the changes of menopause safely and effectively.
The first step in developing an optimal treatment plan is getting the right diagnostic tests. At Renewed Balance Clinic, testing may include:
Understanding a woman's specific hormone profile is key to determining the best treatment approach.
Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHT) involves using lab-made hormones that are molecularly identical to those the human body produces. This allows hormones to be precisely tailored to an individual based on lab testing results and symptom evaluation.
Benefits of bioidentical hormones include fewer side effects compared to traditional hormone therapy. BHT can be customized over time for optimal safety and symptom relief.
There is no “one size fits all” approach to managing menopause. From hot flash remedies to hormone types and doses, what works well for one woman may not help another.
At Renewed Balance Clinic, our practitioners develop customized treatment plans based on each woman's unique health status, risk factors, preferences and goals. We partner together throughout the menopause transition to adjust approaches as needed.
In addition to medical treatment, making certain lifestyle changes can provide significant relief from menopausal symptoms:
We provide personalized lifestyle recommendations to complement medical therapy.
Studies show that practicing yoga poses targeting the endocrine system can help ease multiple menopausal symptoms. Specific poses like Bridge, Cobra, and Fish stimulate endocrine glands and help regulate hormones, reducing hot flashes, mood swings, sleep issues, and more without drugs.
At Renewed Balance Clinic in Lackawanna, we specialize in guiding women through the changes of perimenopause and menopause using individualized treatment plans.
