Menopause is a natural transition that all women go through, marking the end of menstruation and fertility. The average age for menopause is 51, but it can occur earlier or later.
As estrogen levels decline during perimenopause and after menopause, women may experience symptoms like hot flashes, trouble sleeping, vaginal dryness, mood changes, and more. These symptoms can significantly impact quality of life. The good news is that safe and effective treatment options are available.
Hormone therapy (HT) can provide relief by replacing depleted hormones like estrogen. When administered appropriately, HT is a safe way to treat moderate to severe menopause symptoms. The benefits often outweigh the risks for most women.
