The Menopause Clinic

About

A menopause program inside a urology practice

Built because the symptoms women were being sent to us for — urgency, leaking, repeat infections, pain with sex — kept turning out to have the same cause, and nobody was treating it.

Menopause care team

Menopause visits are led by advanced practice providers who do this work every day, with urology physicians in the same practice when a procedure or a surgical opinion is needed.

About Advanced Urology

The Menopause Clinic is a program of Advanced Urology, metro Atlanta's largest urology practice, with 12+ locations and 6 surgery centers across Georgia.

That matters for practical reasons. It means labs, DEXA scanning, urodynamics, and pelvic floor physical therapy are inside the same organization rather than three referrals away. It means a woman whose recurrent urinary infections turn out to need a procedure does not start over with a new practice. And it means the people treating your bladder symptoms and the people treating the hormonal cause of those symptoms are on the same team, looking at the same record.

It also means this is an ordinary insurance-based medical practice. Visits, labs, and DEXA scans are billed to insurance like any specialist visit. There is no membership fee and nothing to buy from us.

Editorial and evidence policy

Every clinical page on this site carries evidence tags and a named reviewer with a review date. We rate our own treatments honestly, including where the evidence is thin, because the alternative is that you find out later that a claim did not hold up.

We state what the evidence supports for hormone therapy — vasomotor symptoms, genitourinary symptoms, and bone density and fracture prevention — and we do not present improvements in energy, mood, cognition, weight, or longevity as established facts, because they are not.

We prescribe FDA-approved products. We do not market compounded hormone preparations, we do not implant hormone pellets, and we do not use marketing language about "optimizing" or "balancing" your hormones, because that describes a business model rather than a treatment.

We do not offer vaginal laser procedures, because the evidence has not shown benefit over sham treatment for genitourinary syndrome of menopause.

Where a specialty guideline covers a question — the AUA/CUA/SUFU recurrent UTI guideline on vaginal estrogen, the AUA/SUFU overactive bladder guideline on stepwise treatment, the global consensus position statement on testosterone in women — we follow it and we name it, so you can check.

Pages are reviewed by a clinician and the review date is published on the page. If you think something here is wrong or out of date, tell us and we will look at it.
