MiElle will provide a super bill for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement, which may help offset some of your expenses. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment that restores declining hormone levels - primarily estrogen and progesterone - in women experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance. It is most used to treat symptoms of menopause and perimenopause.
HRT may help relieve many menopause and perimenopause symptoms, including:
Hot flashes and night sweats
Mood swings, anxiety or depression
Brain fog and memory issues
Fatigue and low energy
Sleep problems or insomnia
Vaginal dryness and discomfort
Low libido
Weight-gain related to hormonal changes
By addressing hormone imbalance, HRT treats the underlying cause of symptoms rather than just masking them.
Most healthy women experiencing moderate to severe menopausal symptoms may be good candidates for HRT. Eligibility depends on factors such as age, symptom severity, medical history, and personal risk factors. A comprehensive evaluation with a qualified provider is essential before starting treatment.
For many women, HRT is a safe and effective when prescribed at the appropriate dose and monitored regularly. Modern HRT uses lower doses and safer formulations than in the past. Your provider will review your health history and monitor treatment to minimize risks and maximize benefits.
HRT typically includes:
Estrogen - Helps relieve hot flashes, supports bone health, and improves mood
Progesterone - Protects the uterus and supports sleep and emotional balance
Some women may receive combination therapy, while others may only need estrogen, depending on whether they have had a hysterectomy.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy uses hormones that are chemically identical to those produced by the human body. BHRT may be available in FDA-approved forms and can be prescribed based on individual symptoms and needs. Your provider can help determine whether bioidentical hormones are approporiate for you.

Some patients report improvement within weeks, while other require several months. Individual’s responses vary.
GLP-1 medications are prescription treatments that help regulate appetite, blood sugar, and metabolism. They work by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that helps you feel full sooner and stay full longer.
Common examples include semaglutide and tirzepatide.
GLP-1 Medications:
Reduce Appetite
Slow stomach emptying
Improve insulin sensitivity
Help regulate blood sugar
This allows weight loss to occur in a controlled and sustainable way.
Most side effects are mild and improve with time:
Nausea
Constipation or diarrhea
Decreased appetite
Felling full quickly
Starting at a low dose and increasing slowly helps minimize side effects.
Not necessarily. Some patients use GLP-1 medications long-term, while others transition off once goals are met. We individualize treatment and discuss maintenance strategies.
