Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for Women: Perimenopause and Menopause

HRT is used to relieve symptoms of perimenopause and menopause by replacing hormones, mainly estrogen and progesterone, that decrease during this time.

  • Perimenopause & Menopause Symptoms:

    • Perimenopause (the transition phase) involves irregular periods and hormonal fluctuations, leading to hot flashes, mood swings, sleep issues, and vaginal dryness.
    • Menopause occurs when a woman hasn’t had a period for 12 months. Common symptoms include continued hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, thinning hair, and vaginal dryness.

  • How HRT Helps:

    HRT replenishes estrogen (and sometimes progesterone) to relieve symptoms. It can improve hot flashes, sleep, mood, and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.


    Types of HRT:

    • Estrogen-only HRT: For women without a uterus.
    • Combined HRT: For women with a uterus, combining estrogen and progesterone to prevent uterine cancer.

  • Benefits and Risks:

    HRT can improve quality of life but may carry risks like blood clots or increased cancer risk with long-term use. It’s important to discuss these with a healthcare provider to find the right treatment.
