What is Menopause?

Understanding Menopause and Hormonal Changes

​

Menopause is a natural stage of life that occurs when the ovaries gradually reduce the production of estrogen and progesterone. These hormonal changes can affect many aspects of physical and emotional health.

​

While menopause is a normal transition, the symptoms can significantly impact daily life for many women.

​

At Evolve Wellness and Recovery, we take a medical approach to menopause care by evaluating hormone levels, overall health, and individual symptoms to develop a personalized treatment plan that supports long term wellness.

Symptoms of Perimenopause and Menopause

Hormonal changes can present in many ways, and each woman’s experience is unique.

​

Common symptoms include:

• hot flashes and night sweats

• sleep disturbances or insomnia

• mood changes or irritability

• anxiety or difficulty concentrating

• decreased libido

• vaginal dryness

• weight gain or changes in metabolism

• fatigue or low energy

• brain fog or reduced focus

• changes in skin or hair

​

If these symptoms are affecting your quality of life, a hormonal evaluation may help determine whether menopause related changes are contributing.

Menopause Evaluation

At Evolve Wellness and Recovery, menopause care begins with a detailed medical evaluation.

​

Dr. Suastegui reviews symptoms, medical history, and laboratory results to determine whether hormone therapy or other treatment options may benefit you.

​

Your evaluation may include:

• estrogen and progesterone testing

• testosterone levels

• thyroid evaluation

• metabolic and cardiovascular risk assessment

• bone health considerations

• vitamin and nutrient evaluation

​

This comprehensive approach ensures treatment is personalized and medically appropriate.
