HRT effectively reduces common menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. This can significantly improve a woman’s quality of life.
Estrogen plays a crucial role in maintaining bone density. HRT can help reduce the risk of osteoporosis and fractures in postmenopausal women.
Hormonal imbalances can lead to mood swings, anxiety, and fatigue. HRT can help stabilize mood and boost energy levels, contributing to overall well-being.

Practices like yoga, meditation, and deep-breathing exercises can help manage stress and improve overall well-being.
Establish a regular sleep routine and create a comfortable sleep environment to combat insomnia and night sweats.
Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, as this can help alleviate some symptoms like dryness and bloating.
