Hormone replacement therapy does not have to mean injections or pellet insertion. For patients who want a non-invasive option they can use at home, HRT creams offer another way to receive hormone support through the skin.
At Innovative Health & Wellness, creams are one of the HRT options we offer to patients looking to address symptoms of hormone changes.
Topical hormone therapy can be used in several different ways depending on the hormone being prescribed and the symptoms being treated. Some creams deliver hormones into the bloodstream so they can affect the whole body. Others, such as low-dose vaginal estrogen creams, work more locally to help with symptoms like vaginal dryness, irritation, or discomfort during intimacy.
Innovative Health & Wellness offers hormone replacement therapy options for men and women at our Atlanta and Woodstock, GA locations. Schedule a consultation to learn more about HRT creams, compare available delivery methods, and find out which type of hormone therapy may be right for you.
We understand that hormone therapy is not one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer three delivery methods
Long-lasting, consistent hormone delivery with minimal maintenance. Inserted in-office every 3–4 months.
Quick-acting, cost-effective, and ideal for patients who prefer weekly or bi-weekly dosing.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy uses hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body.
Each method has unique benefits based on your lifestyle, hormone levels, and personal goals. Our licensed providers will walk you through the differences to choose what’s right for you.

The skin can absorb certain hormones and deliver them into the body. This is known as transdermal hormone therapy.
Some topical hormones are absorbed through the skin and enter the bloodstream, allowing them to have effects throughout the body. Others are applied directly to vaginal tissue and are designed to work mainly in that area.
Understanding that difference is important because a cream used for vaginal dryness is not necessarily the same treatment you would use for hot flashes, low testosterone, or other whole-body symptoms.
Estrogen therapy is commonly used to treat symptoms caused by declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause.
When estrogen is delivered systemically, it reaches the bloodstream and can help with symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disruption, and other bothersome symptoms caused by estrogen loss
FDA-approved systemic estrogen applied through the skin is commonly available as patches, gels, and sprays.
Vaginal estrogen cream is a different type of hormone therapy. Instead of treating whole-body menopause symptoms, a low dose of estrogen is placed directly on vaginal or vulvar tissue.
It is primarily used for genitourinary syndrome of menopause, or GSM. As estrogen levels decline, vaginal and urinary tissues can become thinner, drier, and more sensitive.
Vaginal estrogen may help with vaginal dryness, burning, irritation, and pain during sex.
Testosterone can also be delivered through the skin.
Topical testosterone therapy is used for men who have symptoms of testosterone deficiency along with consistently low testosterone levels.
Once applied, testosterone is absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream. Treatment may help improve symptoms related to low testosterone, such as reduced sex drive, low energy, and changes in muscle mass.

I can’t speak highly enough of David and his colleagues at innovative wellness. I went and got cracked for the first time today and I feel Amazing. I would definitely recommend giving them a try. You won’t be sorry thanks again.
All I can say is WOW! I didn’t know how much I needed the decompression session with Dr. O! His adjustments definitely helped me release some tension and gave my lower back some much needed relief. Dr. O was amazing and I can’t wait for my next session.
Omg it’s amazing I can’t even lie to yall.. I never felt my neck or back with so much release of tension. very professional from the staff and the doc himself talk me thru the whole experience. I really feel like all football players should come and get adjusted trust me the 250 is worth it
Dr. O is truly the best chiropractor out there! After being in a really bad accident, I was dealing with constant back pain and wasn’t sure if I’d ever feel normal again. From the moment I walked into Dr. O’s office, I felt like I was in the right hands.
I started going to Innovative Health a couple years ago. The staff is always so friendly! Their service is always prompt and they truly listen to your needs! I have recommended multiple family members and friends. even my own son! They truly go above and beyond to make things happen!
Dr. Orlando has been a blessing in my life and the life of his patients. The staff makes you feel family. My accident happened and they have all taken care of my therapies and adjustments to help the path of healing
No. HRT may be used for women dealing with perimenopause, menopause, or other hormone-related symptoms.
The best way to find out is to schedule a consultation. We can review your symptoms, health history, and lab work to determine whether hormone therapy may be a good fit for you.
This can vary from person to person. Some patients start to notice improvement within a few days to a few weeks, while others need more time. It typically takes up to 3 months to get a clear sense of how well treatment is working and whether any changes are needed.
Treatment options may include bio-identical pellets, injections, and creams. We will help you choose the option that best fits your needs and goals.
Yes. We offer our HRT appointments both virtually and in-person at our offices in Atlanta and Woodstock, GA.
