Some key reasons to choose Hormone Harmony Clinic for your menopause treatment include:
When you’re experiencing menopause symptoms, skilled treatment can make a big difference in your quality of life. The providers at Hormone Harmony Clinic have the knowledge and experience to guide you through this transition with optimal care.
The wide range of menopause symptoms can significantly disrupt daily life for many women. Here are some of the most common symptoms our menopause doctors effectively treat:
Don’t struggle through menopause alone. Our compassionate menopause specialist will evaluate your symptoms and how they are impacting your wellbeing. We develop customized treatment plans to help you find relief.
For many menopausal women, optimizing hormone levels through our specialized menopause therapy can alleviate multiple symptoms for substantially improved comfort and quality of life.
We provide cutting-edge bioidentical hormone therapy tailored to your needs, based on symptoms and comprehensive lab testing of hormone levels including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and others.
Options may include:
Hormone therapy is highly effective but not appropriate for all patients. Our menopause specialist carefully evaluates risks/benefits for your unique health profile before recommending treatment. Follow up lab testing and exams ensure your optimal hormone balance is achieved and maintained long-term.
We also offer cutting edge non-hormonal prescription medications to provide targeted relief of hot flashes, vaginal dryness and other troublesome menopausal concerns when appropriate.
In addition to hormone therapy and prescription medications, our menopause doctors provide lifestyle recommendations tailored to help you thrive through menopause. Beneficial strategies may include:
With a combination of the right treatments and lifestyle adjustments, many menopausal women are able to enjoy life uninterrupted and thrive through the transition.
Many women are unaware that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an effective treatment for menopause symptoms like hot flashes, trouble sleeping, and mood changes. CBT helps women identify and change negative thought patterns that can exacerbate menopause symptoms. Research shows CBT significantly decreases the frequency of hot flashes and improves mood and quality of life in menopausal women.
The symptoms of menopause can fluctuate seasonally, getting worse at certain times of year. Our menopause doctors find that starting treatment at the optimal time of year helps set our patients up for the best chance of symptom relief and therapy success.
For Bayonne's climate, we typically recommend beginning menopause treatment in early fall, around September and October. As outdoor temperatures cool down, women often experience more severe hot flashes and night sweats that disrupt sleep. Starting treatment before winter helps alleviate these symptoms for more comfortable cold weather months ahead.
The winter and spring seasons in Bayonne also see less sun exposure which can worsen hormone-related mood changes like seasonal affective disorder. There are higher rates of depression during the cold months. Beginning menopause therapy in the fall months allows time for hormone balancing to boost mood before winter hits.
Of course we understand menopause doesn’t follow a predictable calendar. You can begin treatment at any time of year. But our experience shows women starting therapy in the early fall season tend to find the greatest benefits of balanced hormones and symptom relief lasting through winter and beyond.

Too many women unfortunately suffer needlessly through this transition believing it’s “just part of aging”. But with individualized care from our compassionate menopause specialist, most symptoms can be significantly improved or resolved.
Don’t assume hot flashes, trouble sleeping, vaginal dryness and other concerns are “normal” parts of menopause that you have to endure. Our effective therapies can restore comfort and optimize your wellbeing at this time. We empower patients with information and self-care tips so they can feel in control.
