Is Hormone Replacement Therapy Safe?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is one of the most effective treatments for symptoms associated with menopause and perimenopause. However, many people still have questions about its safety.
Much of the concern surrounding hormone therapy originates from early interpretations of the Women’s Health Initiative study published in 2002. The findings were widely reported in ways that suggested hormone therapy carried significant risks.
Since that time, researchers have reexamined the data and conducted many additional studies.
Hormone therapy can help improve symptoms such as:
• sleep disruption
• hot flashes
• mood changes
• cognitive symptoms
• vaginal dryness
• metabolic shifts
Safety depends on multiple factors including medical history, the type of hormones used, and individualized dosing.
