Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment that is used to supplement the hormones that the body no longer produces in sufficient amounts. This is often used to relieve symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings.

Hormone treatment is also utilized primarily for two reasons that are,

• Cancer Treatment:  Hormone therapy can halt or decrease cancer growth and minimise the likelihood of recurrence.
• Reduce the severity of cancer symptoms:  Hormone therapy may be used to alleviate or prevent symptoms in men with prostate cancer who cannot undergo surgery or radiation therapy.

The first thing that we do to make sure that you get the right treatment is by getting certain tests done which would mostly include but not limit to CBC, Thyroid panel, Hormone Assay, Testosterone levels, androgen assay, sugar levels, HbA1c, urine analysis, DHEA levels, Cortisol levels, Liver function tests, Lipid profile, Vitamin B12 and D levels, serum electrolytes, iron panel, cancer markers. Only on the basis of above test reports, we consider cancer therapies and hormone replacement. We usually recommend hormone replacement therapy if possible as it has higher recovery rate chances.

Hormone replacement is used in the treatment of prostate and breast cancers that grow by using hormones. Hormone therapy is frequently used in conjunction with other cancer treatments. The type of treatment you require is determined by the type of cancer, how far it has gone, if it requires hormones to develop, and whether you have any other health issues. Cancer hormone replacement usually lowers the recurrence of cancer & destroys cancer cells as well.
