Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is viewed as essential for individuals above a certain age to address deficiencies that can impact overall health. Hormones play a crucial role in managing various bodily functions, including weight, energy, and cognitive performance. Many individuals struggle with symptoms of hormone deficiency despite maintaining a healthy lifestyle, highlighting the need for potential intervention.
