Hormone Replacement Therapy - HRT

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment used to relieve symptoms of menopause in women. It involves taking hormones (estrogen and progesterone) to replace the ones the body no longer produces after menopause. HRT can help alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. It can also help prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of fractures in postmenopausal women. However, HRT is not suitable for everyone and may have certain risks and side effects, so it's important to discuss the potential benefits and risks with a healthcare provider before starting this treatment.
