Personalized menopause therapy to ease
symptoms and restore balance —
so you can feel like yourself again.
Lake Forest Regenesis provides personalized menopause treatment using hormone therapy and wellness care to help women feel balanced, energized, and supported through every stage of menopause.
Menopause Treatment Clinical Overview
Focused care designed to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life during menopause.
Menopause is a natural stage of life that happens when hormone levels, especially estrogen and progesterone, begin to decline. These changes can affect many areas of the body and lead to symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, mood changes, weight gain, low energy, and changes in sexual health.
At Lake Forest Regenesis, menopause treatment starts with a full medical evaluation. We review your symptoms, health history, and lab testing to understand how hormone changes are affecting your body. This allows us to create a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs.
Our menopause treatment may include personalized hormone therapy, lifestyle guidance, and ongoing medical monitoring. Hormone therapy for menopause is designed to help restore balance, reduce uncomfortable symptoms, and support overall health as your body transitions through menopause.
Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on how you feel and how your body responds. Our goal is not just symptom relief, but long-term wellness, improved quality of life, and support through every stage of menopause.
Hormone Balance
Balancing hormones to support energy, mood, sleep, and overall health.
Hormone balance plays a key role in how women feel during menopause. As estrogen and progesterone levels change, the body may react with symptoms such as hot flashes, poor sleep, mood changes, weight gain, and low energy. These changes can affect daily life and overall well-being.
At Lake Forest Regenesis, we focus on restoring balance through personalized menopause treatment. Care begins with lab testing and a detailed review of symptoms to understand your unique hormone levels. Treatment may include customized hormone therapy for women designed to match your body’s needs. By supporting balanced hormones, our goal is to reduce symptoms, improve daily function, and help women feel more comfortable and confident throughout menopause.
Understanding Menopause
Understanding the changes behind menopause.
Menopause is a natural stage of life that marks the end of monthly menstrual cycles. It usually happens between the ages of 45 and 55, but timing can vary for each woman. Menopause occurs when the ovaries slow down hormone production, especially estrogen and progesterone.
These hormone changes can affect many parts of the body and may lead to symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, mood changes, weight gain, and brain fog. Some women also notice changes in energy levels, focus, and sexual health. Understanding hormonal changes in the body can help women recognize symptoms early and feel more prepared to manage this stage of life with confidence and support.
Because Menopause Treatment is a medical treatment, clinical oversight and patient safety are essential components of care.
Clinical Oversight & Safety
Menopause treatment at Lake Forest Regenesis is guided by medical oversight and patient safety. Care begins with a detailed health review and appropriate lab testing to ensure treatment is safe and effective. Hormone therapy is carefully prescribed and monitored by trained medical providers. Follow-up visits allow adjustments based on symptoms, lab results, and overall health. This ongoing supervision helps reduce risks, supports long-term wellness, and ensures each treatment plan remains aligned with a patient’s changing needs.

Perimenopause vs. Menopause
Two stages of hormonal change, one personalized approach.
Perimenopause is the transition phase before menopause and often begins in a woman’s 40s, though it can start earlier for some. During this time, the ovaries begin to produce hormones unevenly, leading to fluctuating estrogen and progesterone levels. Menstrual periods usually continue but may become irregular, lighter, or heavier. Because hormone levels shift unpredictably, many women notice changes before they realize they are in perimenopause. This is where premenopause treatment may help.
Symptoms during perimenopause can vary widely and may include hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, mood swings, anxiety, weight gain, and difficulty concentrating. These symptoms can come and go or change in intensity from month to month. This stage can last several years and is often when women first seek medical guidance to better understand their symptoms and explore treatment options.
Menopause is reached after 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period. At this stage, ovarian hormone production has significantly declined, and estrogen and progesterone levels remain consistently low. Some women find that certain symptoms improve, while others continue or shift over time. Menopause marks a permanent change rather than a temporary transition.
Health needs during menopause often focus on long-term wellness. Common concerns may include ongoing hot flashes, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness, low libido, changes in metabolism, and bone health. Understanding the difference between perimenopause and menopause helps guide appropriate care, symptom management, and long-term treatment planning.
Living Well Through Menopause
Support for comfort, balance, and long-term well-being.
Menopause can bring many changes, but it does not have to limit how you live or feel each day. With the right care and support, many women are able to reduce symptoms and regain a sense of balance. Living well through menopause means addressing both physical and emotional changes while focusing on long-term health and comfort.
At Lake Forest Regenesis, care is designed to support women beyond symptom relief. Treatment plans are personalized and may include hormone therapy, lifestyle guidance, and ongoing medical monitoring. A whole-body approach to care helps support energy levels, sleep quality, mood, and overall well-being. As your needs change, care plans are adjusted to help you stay supported at every stage.
Menopause is not the end of vitality or confidence. With proper guidance and medical oversight, many women find this stage of life can be a time of renewed focus on health, wellness, and quality of life. This stage can be a new beginning, supported by informed care and a personalized treatment plan.
Who Is a Candidate for Menopause Treatment?
Menopause treatment may be a good option for women experiencing symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, poor sleep, mood changes, weight gain, low energy, or changes in sexual health. Women in perimenopause or menopause who want medical guidance and symptom relief may benefit from care. Treatment is always based on a full health review, lab testing, and individual goals to ensure safety and personalized support.
Who Is Not a Candidate?
Menopause treatment may not be appropriate for every woman. Certain medical conditions or health histories may limit treatment options, especially hormone therapy. Women who are pregnant, have untreated medical conditions, or have specific hormone-sensitive health concerns may need alternative approaches. A full medical evaluation and lab testing are required to determine what care is safe and appropriate. Our team reviews each patient’s history carefully to recommend the best possible options.
