Menopause marks the end of a woman's menstrual cycles and fertility. It usually occurs naturally between the ages of 45 and 55. As a woman approaches menopause, her ovaries gradually produce fewer hormones like estrogen and progesterone. This often causes symptoms like hot flashes, trouble sleeping, vaginal dryness, and mood changes.
Hormone therapy can provide relief by replacing the hormones that decline during menopause. Options include estrogen therapy, progesterone therapy, and combined hormone therapy. When initiated close to menopause, hormone therapy is an effective treatment for menopause symptoms and has benefits for long-term health.
