Hormone Replacement Therapy FAQs

Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has been proven effective for the treatment of hormone imbalance related to conditions such as andropause (low testosterone in men), menopause, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysmorphic disorder (PMDD), and thyroid dysfunction. HRT has also been shown to effectively reduce or eliminate symptoms of aging such as:
  • Hot Flashes
  • Night Sweats
  • Mood Swings
  • Muscle Loss
  • Low Libido
  • Abdominal Belly Fat
  • Poor Sleep
  • Fatigue
  • Low Energy
  • Foggy Thinking
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Irritability
  • Lack of Focus
When you choose bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, you are making a choice for a healthier, higher quality of life. Hormonal imbalances can be difficult to identify because the symptoms present very differently in different people. When you’re working on a tough project or getting ready for a big event, it’s normal to feel tired or moody, but when you are losing sleep night after night, chronically on edge with your spouse, or enduring hot flashes and inexplicable weight gain, it’s time to ask yourself, “How long have I been feeling like this?”
Studies show that bioidentical hormones are safer and more effective in treating hormone imbalance than non-bioidentical therapies. They are also linked to a lower risk of cardiovascular issues and breast cancer.
Most patients benefit positively from bioidentical hormone replacement, but discussing your medical history with your doctor before starting any new treatment is crucial. Some may experience symptoms like headaches, blurry vision, slurred speech, or dizziness, which could be linked to blood clotting issues related to the hormone used in the therapy, not the delivery method.
Hormone therapy costs less than you think. In fact, many plans cost less per day than you might pay for one of those fancy cups of coffee at popular coffeehouses.

In many cases, your labs are covered by insurance, meaning it doesn’t cost you anything to identify the areas your body may be deficient. Following your labs, you will often have a consultation with your provider to review your lab results, and talk about your options for treatment.

Most men and women choose pellet therapy because it reduces the risk of dosing errors, wasted medication, and delivers superior results. For men, a single pellet may last between 5 and 7 months, often dependent on factors like stress and activity level. For women, a single pellet lasts between 3 and 5 months, depending on the same factors as men.

I have gone to Fox River a number of times for massages and experienced a few different massage therapists, all of whom have been top notch. Recently I woke up with a major pain in my back, and sought a massage same day to try and work out the pain. Scott was available later that day! He was very knowledgeable listened to what I was experiencing and proceeded to work out the pain. At the end of the session he also suggested/demonstrated a number of stretches that will help with the tightness, one of these stretches did the trick and combined with the massage I felt much better. Thank you!

The chiropractic team at Fox River MedSpa is fantastic, and the experience of working with them has been life changing. The combination of professional chiropractic adjustments, masterful soft tissue massage, and personalized physical therapy exercises provided by Dr. Steve, Scott, and Leslie have helped me fully recover from a major injury. I continue to see them weekly for preventative maintenance, and I've never felt better. They take time to fully understand the challenges you are facing and the pain you might be enduring, and they make a concerted effort to create a treatment plan that is right for you. I truly feel like they care about me as a person and they are invested in my well-being. I highly recommend their services.

Primarily it was the wide array of services that I could choose from, if not today in the future as the reason I chose this Spa. The Spa takes a look at the total body incorporating yoga, relaxation, chiropractic care, massage, and skincare. Secondly, the Spa gives off that relaxing vibe.
