FAQ
What do you treat?
Elektra providers can treat menopause symptoms including hot flashes, sleep concerns, fatigue, vaginal dryness/painful sex, and more. We can also address menopause-adjacent health concerns such as high cholesterol, hypothyroidism, hypertension, anxiety/depression, etc.
How does Elektra evaluate and treat menopause?
Elektra follows an evidence-based approach closely adhering to guidelines set forth by The Menopause Society (formerly The North American Menopause Society). This includes the use of FDA-approved hormonal and non-hormonal medications. Our providers are also versed in evidence-based integrative approaches (e.g., supplements and lifestyle interventions).
Does Elektra just prescribe hormonal treatment? Or non-hormonal as well?
Elektra providers can prescribe both hormonal AND non-hormonal prescription treatments as well as evidence-backed supplements.
Why is education and community important in menopause care?
Menopause is complicated! And most of us (through no fault of our own) simply aren’t aware of what’s happening to our body during this transition. Most providers lack any training in menopause and others simply don’t spend time on it during a visit. Elektra is different. All Elektra patients get assigned a care team with a board-certified clinician AND a Guide. This way, you can get the comprehensive, ongoing care and support you deserve.
