What is HRT?
Hormonal changes are a natural part of every woman’s life—from puberty to menopause. As women reach their late 30s and 40s, levels of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone begin to decline, often leading to challenging symptoms.
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a doctor-prescribed treatment designed to restore these hormones to more optimal levels. By replenishing what naturally decreases over time, HRT can help manage the many symptoms associated with menopause—including hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.
At Gents & Tonic (or your brand name), we use plant-based, bioidentical hormones, which match the molecular structure of the hormones your body naturally produces.
If you’re struggling with menopausal symptoms, you’re not alone. Our licensed providers are here to listen, support, and create a personalized plan just for you.

Types of HRT?
Estrogen therapy
Estrogen is often considered the primary female hormone, playing a vital role across many body systems. As estrogen levels decline during menopause, symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness may appear.
If you’ve had a hysterectomy, your provider may recommend estrogen alone. If you still have your uterus, estrogen is typically combined with progesterone to protect against uterine cell overgrowth.
Estrogen therapy is primarily used to relieve:
- Vasomotor symptoms (e.g., hot flashes, night sweats)
- Urogenital atrophy (e.g., vaginal dryness, itching, irritation)
Available Forms:
- Oral tablets (for whole-body relief)
- Vaginal creams or rings (for local symptoms)
- Patches
Progesterone therapy
Progesterone, produced in the ovaries, declines along with estrogen during menopause. It’s essential in balancing the effects of estrogen, particularly in protecting the uterus.
Beyond uterine protection, progesterone therapy may also:
- Promote restful sleep
- Ease anxiety and stress
- Improve mood
- Support memory
- Reduce hot flashes
Available Forms:
- Oral capsules
Testosterone therapy
While testosterone is often thought of as a male hormone, women also produce it—and need it. Levels drop during menopause, which can lead to symptoms such as low libido.
In women, testosterone therapy (often through DHEA supplementation) may help with:
- Brain fog
- Pain during sex
- Fatigue
- Weight gain
Available Forms:
- Oral
Combination therapy
Combination therapy blends estrogen and progesterone, and is commonly prescribed for women with a uterus. This approach helps lower the risk of uterine cell overgrowth, which can occur with estrogen alone.
If you’ve had your uterus removed, combination therapy might not be necessary. Some plans also include DHEA for gentle testosterone support, depending on individual needs.

- Lower colorectal cancer risk in certain cases
- Support heart health by improving blood vessel function
- Help maintain muscle mass and strength
- Improve cholesterol profiles, supporting cardiovascular health

Health Risks of HRT?
Like any medical treatment, HRT carries risks. Your provider will assess your personal and family medical history to ensure HRT is appropriate for you. Potential risks can include:
- Increased risk of blood clots or stroke, especially during the first year of use or in smokers with high blood pressure
- Slightly higher risk of heart disease
- Elevated risk of breast cancer with long-term use
A personalized risk assessment ensures the benefits of HRT outweigh potential risks in your individual case.

What is Bioidentical HRT?
Bioidentical HRT uses plant-derived hormones that are structurally identical to those your body produces. These hormones are micronized for better absorption and may cause fewer side effects compared to synthetic alternatives.
Our bioidentical HRT options include oral tablets, creams, and patches—sourced from FDA-approved ingredients for safety and reliability.
