With her expertise and compassionate care, Dr. Reddy helps women navigate the challenges of menopause while optimizing their overall health and well-being.

Understanding Menopause:

Menopause is a natural biological process that typically occurs in women aged 45 to 55, signaling the end of reproductive years. It is characterized by the cessation of menstrual periods due to hormonal changes, particularly a decline in estrogen production by the ovaries. Symptoms of menopause can vary widely among women and may include hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings, and sleep disturbances.

Comprehensive Menopause Management:

Dr. Karthika Reddy offers a holistic approach to menopause management, addressing both physical and emotional aspects of this transition. Her comprehensive services include:

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT):

Dr. Reddy provides personalized hormone replacement therapy to alleviate symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. HRT involves replacing estrogen and, if necessary, progesterone to restore hormonal balance and improve quality of life.

She discusses the benefits and risks of HRT with each patient, considering factors such as age, medical history, and individual preferences.

Lifestyle Modifications:

Dr. Reddy emphasizes the importance of lifestyle modifications in managing menopausal symptoms. She educates women about healthy diet choices, regular exercise, stress management techniques, and adequate sleep to promote overall well-being during menopause.

By adopting a healthy lifestyle, women can minimize the impact of menopausal symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Vaginal Health:

Dr. Karthika Reddy addresses vaginal health concerns commonly associated with menopause, such as vaginal dryness, itching, and discomfort during intercourse. She offers treatments such as vaginal moisturizers, lubricants, and estrogen creams to alleviate symptoms and improve sexual function.

Through open communication and sensitivity, Dr. Reddy ensures that women feel comfortable discussing intimate health issues and receiving appropriate care.

Bone Health:

Menopause is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, a condition characterized by decreased bone density and increased fracture risk. Dr. Reddy emphasizes the importance of bone health screening and preventive measures, such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation, weight-bearing exercises, and bone density testing.

By addressing bone health proactively, Dr. Reddy helps women reduce their risk of fractures and maintain bone strength as they age.

Emotional Support:

Dr. Karthika Reddy recognizes the emotional impact of menopause and provides compassionate support to women experiencing mood swings, anxiety, or depression during this transition. She offers counseling, support groups, and referrals to mental health professionals as needed to address emotional well-being.
