For many women, these symptoms can have an impact on daily well-being and quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>In this video, I chat with my colleague Dr. Raphael Assayag, a family physician who also works extensively in hormone assessment and menopause symptom management.<\/p>\n<p>We discuss the importance of a thorough medical evaluation, appropriate blood tests and how hormone therapy can help some women, when indicated.<\/p>\n<p>Some patients respond very well to hormone therapy, while others may require a different approach. As with any treatment, we proceed with caution, adjusting doses gradually and monitoring for possible side effects.<\/p>\n<p>If you are experiencing menopausal symptoms, I encourage you to consult a qualified health care professional, such as my colleague Dr. Assayag, for a complete evaluation and to determine which options are best for you.<\/p>\n<h2>To book a free consultation with Dr Assayag, call 514-747-8099<\/h2>\n<p>See you soon,<br \/>Dr Benhaim Albert<br \/>Your guide to healthy living<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comprendre la m\u00e9nopause et l\u2019hormonoth\u00e9rapie Chers patients et amis, La m\u00e9nopause peut entra\u00eener un large \u00e9ventail de sympt\u00f4mes \u2014 notamment des bouff\u00e9es de chaleur, des troubles du sommeil, des changements d\u2019humeur, de l\u2019irritabilit\u00e9, des modifications de la peau, une baisse de libido, des douleurs articulaires et parfois une prise de poids.
