Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment used to alleviate menopausal symptoms by replacing hormones like oestrogen and progesterone. HRT can reduce hot flushes, increase bone density, and improve overall quality of life. However, it may also carry risks such as blood clots and breast cancer. Consult a doctor before starting HRT.
