Does Hormone Replacement Therapy Works For All?

By Jake Alexandre


As one gets older, there are many changes in the human body. One of these changes is the decline in the production of hormones. This decline in hormones results in many negative symptoms and is common in women who are in the menopause transition which may begin as early as the age of 35. This menopause transition is the stage where the reproductive hormones in a woman start to decline.

When these symptoms start to get manifested, a woman gets disturbances which make her come to realize that she is leading towards menopause. The symptoms that are faced by her in this stage of life include many psychiatric symptoms which include emotional breakdowns and various episodes of mood swings. Additionally, she starts to notice symptoms that show that she is in anxiety states. These include hot flushing, palpitations, on and off anger and forgetfulness.

When it is about Hormone Replacement Therapy, we must know that it is not only used for alleviating the symptoms of menopause but it is also used for many other purposes for example in handling the pre-mature ovarian failure syndrome. However, we will take the Hormone Replacement Therapy into particular consideration for menopause only.

Every good thing comes along with a group of adverse things also. This can also be applied to Hormone Replacement Therapy which has come along with some negative aspects too. For example endometrial and breast cancer association has been long present with Hormone Replacement Therapy and the association of heart diseases have also been a key factor because of which this therapy has received so many resistance.

Hormone Replacement Therapy has also seen to be in association of many of the inadvertent symptoms such as tenderness of breasts, bleeding which is irregular, headache along with discoloration of skin. This is the reason which explains why it is necessary to be in regular check up of a doctor when a patient is getting treated with Hormone Replacement Therapy.

Additionally, doctors have also taken out a reply against the huge list of adverse effects of Hormone Replacement Therapy. The answer is Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy because these are naturally created products and there are less adverse effects associated with this therapy. Therefore, this therapy is currently in the news nowadays for providing excellent benefits to women within a very short interval of time.

However, it should also be known that Hormone Replacement Therapy also comes with a list of adverse effects along with it. It is not indicated for those who have a previous history of breast or reproductive tract cancers. The paradoxical part over here also is that it is associated with resistance of developing cancers in the colon and rectum.

To conclude, it can be said that Hormone Replacement Therapy is still a wonderful choice provided that it is used properly under supervision of a practicing doctor.
