Hormonal and Non-hormonal Therapies

Hormonal therapies for menopausal symptoms involve the use of hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, to relieve issues like hot flashes and mood swings. These treatments can help balance hormone levels that drop during menopause. Non-hormonal therapies include lifestyle changes, herbal supplements, or medications that don’t contain hormones. They can also effectively manage symptoms without the potential side effects associated with hormone therapy. Both approaches aim to improve quality of life during menopause and later stages of aging, and the best choice depends on individual health needs and preferences. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
