What is LGBT Hormone Replacement Therapy?
During hormone replacement therapy, our doctors try to help patients achieve certain ratios of estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, and DHEA within the body.
However, some patients do not wish to maintain this conventional balance of hormones. Some women may feel more comfortable with higher testosterone levels, with some men may desire high estrogen levels. Other patients may want to explore hormone replacement therapy as the beginning stage of a male-to-female or female-to-male transition.
At Age Management Center of New England, we understand that gender is fluid and different for everyone; that’s why we’re proud to offer LGBT hormone replacement therapy for any of our patients interested in it.
