Facts About Menopausal Hormone Therapy

Brand new! Revised with updated information following NIH's cessation of the estrogen-alone study. Choosing whether or not to use menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) can be one of the most important health decisions women face as they age.

It is designed to provide patients with information to help them communicate more effectively with their care providers and determine the best course of treatment on an individual basis. This easy to read publication covers such topics as Menopause and Hormone Therapy, Alternatives to Hormone Therapy to Help Prevent Postmenopausal Conditions and Relive Menopausal Symptoms, Dietary Supplements, and more. NIH Publication Number 05-5200. June 2005. 24 pages. 8.5" x 11". Full Color.
