Hormonal therapies, including oral contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy (HRT), may need adjustments based on the patient’s response.
- Switching Formulations: If one type of oral contraceptive causes side effects, switching to another formulation can help. - Dosage Changes: Increasing or decreasing hormone levels in HRT can alleviate symptoms more effectively. - Adding or Removing Components: Sometimes, adding progesterone to estrogen therapy (or vice versa) can balance the treatment.
