Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) provides women with the hormones once produced by their ovaries (estrogen and progesterone) that sharply reduce the symptoms of menopause. It is a common therapy for perimenopausal and postmenopausal women to alleviate hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and other symptoms associated with the climacteric. Growth hormone therapy (GH) and DHEA therapy are not typically used for these purposes, and HGH treatment therapy is not relevant to menopause.
