Dr. Lisa Chang is a wife, mother, and board-certified OB-GYN, as well as a proud member of the North American Menopause Society. She has devoted her professional life to advancing women’s health.
As she entered midlife herself, Dr. Chang began to personally experience many of the same concerns her patients had shared with her—particularly around weight gain during the menopausal transition.
The common advice to “eat less and move more” may work well for younger individuals with faster metabolisms, but Dr. Chang found it ineffective once she began experiencing perimenopausal symptoms. Determined to find a better approach, she committed her time and resources to uncovering solutions that truly support women during this stage of life.
張莞君婦產科醫師是一位妻子、母親，也是具有專科認證的婦產科醫師，同時是北美更年期醫學會的榮譽會員。她將職業生涯奉獻於推動女性健康的發展。
當她自己步入中年後，也開始親身經歷許多病人曾向她傾訴過的困擾——特別是進入更年期期間的體重增加問題。
一般人常說的「少吃多動」這種建議，對於新陳代謝較快的年輕人可能有效，但當張醫師開始出現中年體形改變的症狀時，她發現這個方法對自己並不管用。為了尋找更有效的方式，她決心投入時間與資源，找出真正能夠幫助女性度過這個人生階段的解方。
What symptoms suggest I am approaching menopause?
我是不是快進入更年期了？有哪些症狀可以觀察？
Not all women have serious menopause symptoms, but many experience:
不是所有女性在更年期都會有明顯或嚴重的症狀，但很多人會經歷以下這些常見變化:
Hot flashes and night sweats 熱潮紅和夜間盜汗

Depression or anxiety 憂鬱或焦慮感

How are menopause symptoms treated?
Menopause is a chaotic shift in your hormones and can’t be stopped, Dr. Chang offers a number of treatments that make the transition smoother and ease your uncomfortable symptoms.
The symptoms you experience during menopause are due to the dramatic drop in your estrogen and progesterone levels. Hormone replacement therapy can help rebalance your levels so symptoms subside.
The symptoms experienced during menopause — such as hot flashes, mood changes, weight gain, and low libido — are largely due to a sharp decline in estrogen and progesterone levels. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can help restore hormonal balance, providing relief and improving quality of life.
Dr. Chang offers FDA-approved HRT options in various forms, including creams, oral medications, and transdermal patches. For more personalized care, she also partners with a licensed compounding pharmacy to provide custom-formulated treatments. These may include solutions to support weight management and address hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD).
Recognizing that every woman’s menopause journey is unique, Dr. Chang is committed to helping each patient find the right tools and therapies to take control of their health and live an active, vibrant life.
如果您發現自己有上述一些狀況，可能就是正在進入更年期。這是一個自然的生理變化過程，但若症狀影響到生活品質，建議可以諮詢專業婦產科醫師，尋求適合的調整或治療方式。
更年期症狀可以怎麼治療？
更年期是體內荷爾蒙變化的過程，雖然無法完全避免，但張莞君醫師提供多種療法，能幫助您平穩度過這段轉變期，並舒緩不適的症狀。
更年期出現的各種症狀——像是熱潮紅、情緒波動、體重增加、性慾減退等，主要都是因為體內雌激素（Estrogen）和黃體素（Progesterone）下降所引起的。透過荷爾蒙補充療法（HRT, Hormone Replacement Therapy），可以重新幫助平衡荷爾蒙水平，減緩症狀、提升生活品質。
張醫師提供多種美國FDA核准的HRT療法，包括藥膏、口服藥物及貼片等不同劑型。此外，她也與合格的配方藥局合作，為有需要的患者客製化調配專屬的療程。這些療法也可能包含體重管理 如瘦瘦針的方案，以及針對性慾低落（低性慾障礙）的對應治療。
張醫師深知，每位女性的更年期旅程都不盡相同。她致力於協助每一位患者找到最合適的治療方式與生活策略，讓您能夠重新掌握健康，繼續擁有充實、活力的生活。
