Can HRT Help With Menopause Symptoms

by feedme on March 4, 2008

In medical circles, the case for hormones and hormone replacement therapy for use in treating early menopause symptoms s pretty strong. It’s especially critical, proponents say, because today’s middle-aged generation will live longer than any before it.

A hundred years ago, many women did not reach 50, and as the average age for a woman to start to see early menopause symptoms is around 50 years old, these women died before they had any menopause symptoms.

Now, the average age for women is 78, which is well past the menopausal years and well into post menopausal territory.

Once we hit menopause, women are more prone to heart disease and osteoporosis. Further, proponents say, the risks of contracting cancer from HRT are small and unproven.

So depending upon who you speak to will determine what kind of answer you get relating to the safety of HRT.

One of many alternatives is to opt for a more natural solution that involves taking supplements specifically formulated for dealing with early menopause symptoms. There are some very effective menopause herbal remedies that work just as well, and in some cases even better, than man-made hormones.

These remedies often contain other compounds that also help with protecting against conditions like heart disease and osteoporosis – the two main diseases that affect women after menopause.
