Side-Effects of Menopause and HRT How can the ill-effects of menopause be reduced The ill-effects of menopause can
largely be prevented with estrogen replacement therapy (ERT). ERT
reduces the incidence of osteoporosis, heart attacks, strokes and generally
improves the well being and life span of women. For more than three decades
estrogens have been prescribed to relieve menopausal symptoms. Treatments
like Estrogen Replacement Therapies (ERT) and Hormone Replacement Therapies
(HRT) can reduce the gynecological and psychological changes associated
with menopause while inhibiting bone resorption and reducing the risk of
cardiovascular diseases.
What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) All menopausal and post-menopausal women go through estrogen deficient years, which can manifest in both physical and emotional ways leading to an impairment in the quality of life. As the female life expectancy has increased, it is possible for a woman to live one third of the life after menopause. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment for menopause given to women to correct the hormonal deficiency in peri- and post-menopausal state.
