Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Hot flashes and night sweats are hallmark symptoms of hormonal fluctuations, particularly during menopause. They result from changes in the body’s ability to regulate temperature, often triggered by declining estrogen levels. These symptoms can occur suddenly and unpredictably, lasting anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes, making daily activities and restful sleep a challenge.
Grand Rapids women’s health and wellness specialists at Optimal Wellness Medical treat each woman as an individual and believe that all women deserve a customized and compassionate approach to health and wellness.
