Hormone Therapy For Women
A common time for women to seek help with hormones is near menopause.
Aging women may experience hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness, and other symptoms. Hormone replacement therapy can be used to relieve these symptoms. There are many different types of hormone replacement therapies available for women. These include estrogen and progesterone-only therapies or those that include both estrogen and progesterone.
The most common type of hormone replacement therapy is estrogen-progesterone combined therapy (EPT). EPT can help with hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings, osteoporosis prevention in postmenopausal women and more. EPT may also help with heart disease prevention in postmenopausal women as well as preventing dementia in postmenopausal women who have a family history of it or who are at an increased risk
