Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormonal imbalance can bring a wide range of symptoms—from fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, and low libido to hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and weight gain. These changes can make it hard to feel like yourself, but the good news is: you don’t have to just accept feeling bad. Women spend up to one-third of their lives in perimenopause and menopause, and you deserve to feel strong, clear, and supported every step of the way.

At Elevate Wellness Center in Forest City, North Carolina, Meredith Greene, MSN, FNP-C, ENP-C, offers bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT)—a personalized, natural approach to restoring hormonal balance and improving overall well-being. Whether you're just starting to notice changes or have been dealing with symptoms for years, Meredith works with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your body, your goals, and your lifestyle.

Appointments are available both in-person and via telemedicine for your convenience. Ready to feel like yourself again? Call or click today to schedule your consultation and explore how BHRT can help you reclaim your energy, confidence, and quality of life.

How does hormonal imbalance develop in women?

Your body is beautifully designed to function in balance—but as we age, that balance can shift. Hormones naturally fluctuate throughout a woman’s life, but during the transition into perimenopause and menopause, your body begins to produce less estrogen, progesterone, and other key hormones. These changes can trigger a wide range of symptoms that affect your energy, mood, mental clarity, sleep, and sense of self.

While menopause is the most common cause of hormonal imbalance in women, it’s far from the only one. Hormonal shifts can also be triggered by autoimmune conditions, chronic stress, endocrine disorders, or surgical removal of the ovaries. Perimenopause—the years leading up to menopause—can bring symptoms that feel confusing or even overwhelming. But you're not alone, and you don’t have to suffer in silence or simply "push through."

I believe no woman should have to accept feeling unwell as her new normal. These changes are real, and your symptoms are valid—but there is help, and there is hope.

What are some signs I might benefit from hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?

If you’ve been feeling “off” and can’t quite explain why, a hormonal imbalance may be the root cause. Common symptoms include:

• Hot flashes and night sweats

• Mood swings or increased anxiety

• Brain fog and memory issues

• Vaginal dryness or discomfort

• Low libido or sexual dissatisfaction

• Sleep disturbances

• Fatigue or low motivation

• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

• Dry skin and thinning hair

Every woman’s experience is unique—some breeze through this phase, while others find their symptoms deeply disruptive. If your hormonal symptoms are interfering with your quality of life, know that you don’t have to just “deal with it.” Hormone replacement therapy can offer powerful relief and help you reconnect with your best self.

How does hormone replacement therapy work?

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), particularly bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), gently restores what time and life may have depleted. Using hormones that are biologically identical to those your body naturally produces, BHRT supports balance in a safe, personalized, and effective way.

At Elevate Wellness Center, I take the time to listen, educate, and create a treatment plan that reflects your specific symptoms, goals, and health history. This is never a one-size-fits-all solution—it's a partnership based on trust, compassion, and clinical expertise.

Throughout your treatment, we’ll stay in close communication, monitoring your response and adjusting as needed. My goal is for you to feel heard, understood, and empowered every step of the way.

Hormone replacement therapy isn’t just about symptom relief—it’s about helping you reclaim the energy, clarity, and confidence that help you feel like you again.

I also offer testosterone replacement therapy for men experiencing hormonal imbalance. Whether in-person or through telemedicine, I'm here to walk with you on your journey toward wellness.
