Does Dr. Porrata offer hormone replacement therapy?
Dr. Claudia Porrata does specialize in Functional Medicine and does offer a six month hormone replacement therapy program. Hormone replacement therapy primarily focuses on the replacement of estrogen that the female body no longer makes after menopause. Hormone therapy is typically administered through a pill and can be used to treat common menopausal symptoms, as well as potentially prevent bone loss and reduce fracture in postmenopausal women. If you have been feeling off for a while now and looking for a solution, Dr. Porrata can help. You're fatigue all the time, you have no sex drive, you're irritable and your hair is falling out. You've been to a few doctors and they've all ran tests, but everything comes back normal. They tell you that it's all in your head or that you're just adjusting to a new chapter in your life. But you know something is wrong, so you keep looking for answers. Finally, you find a doctor who runs some more tests and finds that your hormones are out of whack. Based on a personalized medical plan, Dr. Porrata may start you on hormone therapy and within a few weeks, you feel like yourself again.
