What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to supplement or replace hormones that the body is no longer producing in sufficient quantities. It is commonly used to address hormonal imbalances or deficiencies — particularly in menopausal women, older men, and individuals with certain endocrine disorders.
HRT may involve various hormones — such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, or levothyroxine — depending on the patient's specific needs. The therapy can be delivered through different methods, including oral medications, skin patches, gels, creams, or injections.
