Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
in Charlottesville, VA
in Charlottesville, VA
If you're wondering why your sleep is a mess, your mood is all over the place, or your energy levels are tanking, you’re not imagining things. For many women, these are signs that hormone levels are shifting long before (and after) menopause officially begins.
The problem? Most healthcare providers either ignore it or offer generic solutions that don’t truly help.
At Longevity Health Clinic in Charlottesville, VA, we take a different approach. We treat hormonal changes as real, personal, and fixable. Led by Dr. Jason Itri, MD, PhD, we use personalized hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to support your unique biochemistry, lifestyle, and goals. We specialize in advanced, evidence-based care that combines bioidentical hormones, comprehensive lab testing, and one-on-one support to optimize well-being at every stage of life.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment that supplements the hormones your body stops producing in adequate amounts as you age. This includes estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—hormones that play a crucial role in everything from metabolism and cognitive function to libido and mood regulation.
At Longevity, we use bioidentical hormones—compounds that are chemically identical to the ones produced naturally by the human body. These therapies are designed to relieve the most common and disruptive menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness, brain fog, and sleep disturbances. They can also help women lose weight, support mental health, and improve overall health and well-being.
We commonly treat:
HRT is not just about managing unpleasant symptoms—it’s an effective treatment designed to help women feel strong, clear-headed, and in control.
We believe hormone therapies should be as personalized as your fingerprint. That’s why we offer different forms of replacement therapy and tailor each plan based on your hormone levels, medical history, and individual needs.
All treatments are prescribed with close supervision and ongoing follow-up to ensure safety, efficacy, and optimal results.
We begin with an in-depth Hormone Replacement Therapy consultation. You’ll meet with Dr. Itri to discuss your symptoms, goals, and medical history. We’ll take time to understand how hormonal changes have affected your daily life, energy levels, and emotional balance.
We analyze key hormone levels—estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA-S, FSH, LH, SHBG—as well as metabolic markers, inflammation levels, and nutrient deficiencies to uncover the root causes of your symptoms.
We customize your treatment based on the lab results and your unique physiology. Whether it’s transdermal estrogen paired with progesterone or a low-dose testosterone cream, your plan is designed to deliver real results with minimal side effects.
We also include lifestyle coaching around nutrition, exercise, and stress management—because hormones don’t operate in a vacuum.
Most Charlottesville Hormone Replacement Therapy patients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks as their body adjusts to the therapy. This isn’t a quick fix, but rather a smart, sustainable way to optimize your health and well-being.

Hormones are powerful. So is the right treatment.
Early signs can include irregular periods, mood swings, brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, and trouble sleeping. Many women also notice increased anxiety, vaginal dryness, and a decline in libido even before menopause officially begins. These shifts are often signs of perimenopause and can benefit from early evaluation and treatment.
Safety depends on the type of hormone used, delivery method, and your individual risk factors. At Longevity Health Clinic, we use bioidentical hormones and work closely with each patient to evaluate their personal and family medical history. In some cases, non-systemic estrogen (like vaginal estradiol) or non-hormonal interventions may be recommended.
Yes, hormone fluctuations during menopause can slow metabolism, increase insulin resistance, and lead to stubborn weight gain. Optimizing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels can improve body composition and support fat loss when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Hormones like estrogen and progesterone play a crucial role in brain function. Many women on HRT report improved mental clarity, better memory, and less brain fog. There’s emerging evidence suggesting HRT may also reduce the risk of cognitive decline when started early in menopause.
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structure as the hormones produced by the human body. This makes them more easily recognized and utilized, and often better tolerated with fewer side effects. They’re especially beneficial for patients who want a more natural, individualized approach to hormone replacement.
Absolutely. Perimenopause—the time leading up to menopause—can involve unpredictable hormone fluctuations that cause significant symptoms. Treatment during this phase can regulate cycles, stabilize mood, and reduce symptoms before menopause fully sets in.
For many women, yes—in a positive way. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone all impact sexual desire and function. HRT can improve libido, increase vaginal lubrication, and make intimacy more comfortable and satisfying.
Yes. For women with contraindications to hormone therapy, we offer lifestyle interventions, targeted supplements, and non-hormonal strategies to support mood, sleep, and energy. We tailor every plan based on your individual needs and health profile.
