If you are considering using hormones, do some research on the benefits and
risks and make sure to see a practitioner who will take the time to explain
them to you thoroughly. Make sure that you use a practitioner and laboratory
that is more specialized and can accurately test and interpret your blood
levels. You should be monitored on an ongoing basis once you are on the hormones
to make sure that the levels are comfortable and effective for your individual
case and that you are not having side effects.
Hormone therapy should ideally be prescribed by practitioners who have the
time and the expertise to evaluate the totality of your experience and provide
guidance to you within the context of your lifestyle and current relationship.
For many women, “sex hormones” are the base for your sex life and without
them, nothing else may seem to be working. So if you think that could be you,
don’t be afraid to consider their use.
