Hormone Replacement Therapy

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is designed to address hormonal imbalances in both men and women. As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to a variety of physical and emotional changes. At Pashen Health, we offer personalized HRT programs tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient, helping them achieve optimal health and well-being.

Understanding Male Hormonal Imbalance

For men, testosterone levels gradually decrease with age, often leading to symptoms such as fatigue, decreased libido, muscle weakness, mood swings, and cognitive decline. Hormonal imbalances can significantly impact quality of life, but Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) offers a solution.
