Does Insurance Cover HRT for Perimenopause and Menopause?
During perimenopause and menopause, changing estrogen levels can contribute to symptoms that affect your daily life. Hormone replacement therapy or HRT is a treatment that’s recommended to help relieve symptoms by restoring hormones that decline over time.
Common symptoms of perimenopause and menopause include:
- Low libido
- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Mood changes
- Unexplained weight gain
- Brain fog
- Irregular periods
Many insurance plans provide coverage for HRT when it is considered medically necessary based on your symptoms. However, coverage can depend on:
- Your insurance provider and plan
- Your deductible and copay
- The type of hormone therapy prescribed
Because every insurance plan is different, it’s important to confirm your benefits before starting treatment.
