Can menopause be completely cured?

Can menopause be completely cured? In view of the obvious drop in estrogen levels during menopause, there is a well-known hormone replacement therapy in medicine. However, in recent years, there has been a lot of debate in the academic community about hormone replacement therapy. So today we will face menopause and talk about the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy.

Hormone replacement therapy Hormone replacement therapy is a medical treatment method that usually uses intravenous injection, oral administration, etc. to replace hormones when the body lacks estrogen in menopausal women. Hormone replacement therapy can delay aging in postmenopausal women, but some studies have shown that this therapy can cause a series of adverse reactions.

Many women have given up on hormone replacement therapy after a widely publicized 2002 study found that using hormone replacement therapy could increase heart problems by 29 percent, increase stroke risk by 41 percent, and increase breast cancer risk by 26 percent.

However, in recent years, researchers have recently discovered that the original research conclusions were overturned because they did not take into account the age issue (i.e. the number of years after entering menopause). When they re-analyzed the research data, they found that hormone replacement therapy was not dangerous for women under 60 years old, and on the contrary, it could protect against diseases that were previously believed to be induced by it. This new conclusion has completely changed people's understanding of hormone replacement therapy, and the call for women to continue using hormone replacement therapy to treat menopausal diseases has increased again.
