What is Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment that supplements or replaces hormones to alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances or deficiencies. It’s most commonly used in women during menopause but can also be used in other situations where hormone levels need adjustment.
During menopause, a woman’s body undergoes significant hormonal changes, particularly a decrease in estrogen and progesterone. These changes can lead to symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and vaginal dryness. HRT can be administered as pills, patches, gels, creams or injections to help restore hormonal balance and alleviate these symptoms.
What are the Benefits of BHRT for Women?
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) offers more than just addressing hormonal imbalances for women. The International Menopause Society’s position statement highlights its ability to enhance skin health, boosting dermal thickness, collagen content and skin elasticity. BHRT is also crucial in preserving bone density, supporting heart health by reducing cardiovascular disease risk and potentially aiding cognitive function while promoting emotional stability.
