Hormone therapy can also improve other problems related to menopause, such as joint and muscle pain and sleep disorders. The Women's Health Initiative has showed that an application of HRT before the age of 60 would mean female mortality rates would fall by 30%.
But like others medical issues, HRT has clear-defined indications, contraindications and conditions of use with caution. A menopause woman should go to see a doctor to decide whether she can use HRT or not.
After receiving the drug administration, follow-up visits are also very important. This is the only way to make the therapeutic method safer and to benefit more Chinese women.
