Hormonal therapy is a type of treatment that involves using medications to alter the levels or activity of hormones in the body. Hormonal therapy is often used to treat conditions that are related to imbalances in hormones, such as menopause, endometriosis, and prostate cancer.
A to Z Healthcare provides hormonal therapy management. We offer a range of hormonal therapy options depending on the specific needs of the patient. Some common types of hormonal therapy that are offered include:
- Estrogen therapy: Estrogen therapy is used to replace the hormone estrogen in the body, which can help to manage the symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness.
- Progesterone therapy: Progesterone therapy is used to replace the hormone progesterone in the body, which can help to manage the symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and insomnia.
- Androgen deprivation therapy: Androgen deprivation therapy is used to lower the levels of androgens (male hormones) in the body, which can help to treat prostate cancer.
- Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists are medications that block the production of hormones that stimulate the ovaries or testicles. This can help to treat conditions such as endometriosis or uterine fibroids.
