About Menopause Care
Menopause is a natural transition, but it doesn't have to disrupt your quality of life. Garden OB/GYN provides comprehensive menopause care to help you manage symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, sleep disturbances, and vaginal dryness. Our providers create personalized treatment plans that may include hormone replacement therapy, non-hormonal medications, and lifestyle modifications to help you feel your best.
What to Expect
Your menopause consultation begins with a thorough review of your symptoms, medical history, and current health. Your provider may order blood tests to check hormone levels and screen for conditions like osteoporosis and cardiovascular risk. Together, you'll discuss treatment options ranging from hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to non-hormonal alternatives, vaginal estrogen, and lifestyle changes. Follow-up visits ensure your treatment plan is working effectively.
Who Is It For
Women experiencing perimenopause (typically beginning in the mid-40s) and menopause symptoms. Also appropriate for women who have undergone surgical menopause after a hysterectomy or oophorectomy.

Menopause Care — Common Questions
When does menopause start?
Most women enter perimenopause in their mid-40s, with menopause (12 consecutive months without a period) occurring around age 51 on average. However, timing varies significantly.
Is hormone replacement therapy safe?
For most healthy women under 60 or within 10 years of menopause, HRT is considered safe and effective. Your provider will evaluate your individual risks and benefits.
What if I don't want to take hormones?
We offer non-hormonal options including certain antidepressants, lifestyle modifications, herbal supplements, and vaginal moisturizers that can effectively manage symptoms.
Will my symptoms eventually go away?
Many symptoms improve over time, though some women experience them for years. Treatment helps you maintain comfort and quality of life during the transition.
