Estrogen is a key hormone that supports reproductive, brain, bone, heart, and skin health. During perimenopause, estrogen levels fluctuate unpredictably before gradually declining, which can trigger uncomfortable symptoms.
Benefits of Estrogen in Perimenopause:
1. Reduces hot flashes and night sweats
2. Improves mood and emotional resilience
3. Supports vaginal and urinary health
4. Protects bones from thinning (osteopenia/osteoporosis)
5. Enhances skin elasticity and hydration
6. May support memory and cognitive clarity
Progesterone is just as vital as estrogen, especially for balance, sleep, and mood. In perimenopause, progesterone levels typically drop before estrogen does, contributing to irritability, poor sleep, anxiety, and irregular periods.

Benefits of Progesterone in Perimenopause
1. Improves sleep quality (helps you fall asleep and stay asleep)
2. Calms the nervous system (reduces anxiety and restlessness)
3. Stabilizes mood (especially during PMS or cycle fluctuations)
4. Supports GABA activity — a calming neurotransmitter
​​Testosterone plays a vital but often overlooked role in women's health during menopause. Testosterone levels also drop and can also cause fatigue, low libido, decreased muscle mass, poor concentration, and reduced motivation. Supplementing testosterone in appropriate doses can help improve sexual desire and satisfaction, enhance energy and mental clarity, preserve lean body mass, and support mood stability. For many women, restoring optimal testosterone levels alongside estrogen and progesterone can significantly enhance overall quality of life during and after the menopausal transition.

TESTOSTERONE PELLET THERAPY
​
Testosterone Pellet Therapy is a form of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) where small, solid pellets containing testosterone are implanted under the skin (typically in the buttocks or hip area). These pellets slowly release testosterone into the bloodstream over several months.​​
​
TRT INJECTIONS
TRT Injections refer to Testosterone Replacement Therapy delivered via intramuscular or subcutaneous injections.​​​
