Every day when our HRT Doctors speak with our female patients, our patients state their respective symptoms and then ask “Is this normal?”.
The list of symptoms below reflects the most common symptoms that our perimenopausal, menopausal, and post-menopausal patients bring up. Keep in mind that this isn’t a list of all symptoms, but rather the most common. Additionally, the experience of these symptoms can vary patient by patient.
