Perimenopause, Menopause & HRT
Midlife hormonal changes can affect sleep, body composition, mood, cognition, sexual health, energy and quality of life. Recalibrate Medicine helps women understand what may be changing and make individualized decisions about hormone therapy and other treatment options.
Physician-guided care for women in perimenopause and menopause, including a clear conversation about hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and other treatment options. The goal is to understand what is changing in your body and make a decision that fits your history, symptoms, and goals.
You begin by ordering your Recalibrate Medicine comprehensive lab panel and completing a simple online form covering your medical history, symptoms, and goals. Once your results are complete, Dr. Mooney reviews them with you and looks at your symptoms, cycle changes, personal and family history, and risk factors together. If HRT is appropriate, he explains your options, including the type of hormone, the dose, and how it is taken.
Treatment can ease symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, poor sleep, mood changes, brain fog, and vaginal dryness, and it can also support bone health. Because follow-up is built in, your plan can be adjusted as your body continues to change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Perimenopause, Menopause & HRT
Women in their late 30s, 40s, or 50s noticing irregular cycles, hot flashes, night sweats, poor sleep, mood changes, weight changes, lower libido, or brain fog. It is also a fit for women already on HRT who want a second opinion or closer monitoring.
After you order your lab panel and complete the online health history form, you meet one-on-one with Dr. Mooney, in person or by telemedicine. The visit focuses on your symptoms and history, since perimenopause cannot always be confirmed by a single lab value.
Lab results are usually back within about a week. Many women notice improvement in hot flashes and sleep within a few weeks of starting HRT, while other changes can take a few months. Follow-up visits and labs are scheduled regularly during the first year.
HRT is not right for every woman. A personal history of certain cancers, blood clots, stroke, or liver disease can change the recommendation. Dr. Mooney reviews your personal risk with you, and non-hormonal options are available when hormones are not the right fit.
Symptoms, side effects, and relevant labs are reviewed at regular intervals, and your dose or approach is adjusted as your needs change through perimenopause and beyond.
