Menopause Management at The Wellness NPs Helping Women Thrive Through Every Stage of Change
Menopause is a natural transition, not the end of vitality. At The Wellness NPs, we believe every woman deserves to feel vibrant, balanced, and confident—at every age. Our menopause management program is designed to restore hormonal harmony, relieve symptoms, and help you live with renewed energy and purpose.
Understanding Menopause
Menopause marks the time when a woman’s menstrual cycles stop, typically between ages 45–55, due to declining levels of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. However, the years leading up to menopause—known as perimenopause—can bring significant hormonal shifts and uncomfortable symptoms that affect mood, sleep, metabolism, and sexual health.
Common experiences may include:
• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Irregular periods
• Weight gain and bloating
• Mood swings or irritability
• Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
• Low libido or painful intercourse
• Fatigue and poor sleep
• Hair thinning or dry skin
While menopause is a natural process, you don’t have to suffer through it. Personalized hormone therapy and lifestyle optimization can help you feel like yourself again.

At The Wellness NPs, we take a comprehensive and science-based approach to menopause care. We don’t just treat symptoms – we look at the whole picture of your health, hormones, nutrition, and lifestyle.
Your personalized plan may include:
• Comprehensive hormone testing to evaluate estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol, and other key markers

Frequently Asked Questions
Hormone Replacement Therapy helps restore balance to hormones that naturally decline during perimenopause and menopause. At The Wellness NPs, we use FDA-approved bioidentical hormones to relieve symptoms, boost energy, and improve quality of life.
Hot flashes, night sweats, weight gain, fatigue, low libido, brain fog, mood changes, and sleep problems are all signs of hormone imbalance. Proper evaluation and therapy can help restore balance and relieve these symptoms.

Most women begin feeling relief within 4–8 weeks, with optimal results around 3–6 months as hormone levels stabilize.
HRT can improve mood, energy, libido, sleep, focus, and metabolism. It also supports bone and cardiovascular health.
