HORMONE THERAPY

The hormone fluctuations caused by menopause can increase a person’s risk for depression dramatically. 

While hormone therapy is not a direct treatment for depression, treating the hormone fluctuations can help tremendously—a recent study found that women treated with hormone therapy for menopause were less likely to experience depression.

Before starting hormone therapy, it is important to undergo lab testing to identify the underlying cause of the symptoms and determine the best treatment. Start by scheduling your labs at Blue Sky MD today.
