Menopause Hormone Therapy: What Every Woman Should Know

Menopause Hormone Therapy: What Every Woman Should Know

 Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman’s menstrual cycles. While it’s a normal stage of life, it often comes with uncomfortable symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, sleep problems, and vaginal dryness — which can significantly affect a woman’s quality of life.

This is where Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT) comes in — a medically-approved treatment option designed to ease these symptoms and support long-term health.


🔍 What is Menopause Hormone Therapy?

MHT (also known as HRT - Hormone Replacement Therapy) involves supplementing the body with estrogen and sometimes progesterone to restore hormonal balance during and after menopause. It's a widely-used and effective method for managing moderate to severe menopausal symptoms.


🌡️ Common Symptoms MHT Helps With:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats

  • Vaginal dryness and discomfort during intimacy

  • Mood swings, anxiety, or depression

  • Fatigue and sleep disturbances

  • Thinning of bones (osteoporosis prevention)


🧬 Types of Hormone Therapy:

  1. Estrogen-only Therapy – Recommended for women who’ve had a hysterectomy.

  2. Combined Estrogen-Progestin Therapy – For women with an intact uterus, to prevent endometrial cancer.

  3. Low-dose Vaginal Products – For localized symptoms like vaginal dryness.


🤔 Is Hormone Therapy Right for You?

Hormone therapy may not be suitable for everyone. Your doctor will consider:

  • Your age and how long it’s been since menopause began

  • Family and personal medical history

  • Risks of breast cancer, blood clots, or heart disease

At Harsh Hospital, Himatnagar, we believe in individualized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs. Our expert gynecology team will guide you every step of the way.

🔔 Important: Consult Before You Start

Never start hormone therapy without medical supervision. A gynecologist will help you assess benefits vs. risks and decide the best route of treatment — whether short-term relief or long-term care.
