Most women are told to fear HRT, but the truth is far more balanced. When started at the right time, and in the right form, HRT can be both safe and deeply effective for midlife symptoms.
If you’ve been confused by mixed messages, you’re not alone. The key is understanding your personal risk factors, the type of HRT that suits you, and what the latest evidence actually says.
HRT isn’t for everyone, but for many healthy women under 60 or close to menopause, it can be a safe, helpful tool for better sleep, steadier mood, fewer hot flashes, and stronger bones.
If you have questions about whether HRT is right for you, speak to a menopause-informed doctor who can guide you with clarity and confidence.
