What you need to know about hrt
As an individual ages he or she is gripped by many physical problems. These problems have different origins. But most of the age-old troubles are a consequence of weak functioning or one can say retirement of the internal organs of the body. So as the individual plans his or her retirement from work, the body organs too propose their retreat. However, studies have revealed that women are more prone to old age problems. The foremost reason of this their menopause that occurs at the age of 45 to 54. In some cases it might be a little later than that too.
Menopause is the term that refers to the cessation of the menstruation cycle of a woman. Once menopause occurs, the woman’s tendency to conceive expires. So she cannot reproduce any more. But as the onset of menstruation is marked with numerous hormonal changes within a girl’s body; similarly an end to these monthly periods is simultaneous to innumerable hormonal alterations.
But the pre menopause symptoms are unbearable for many women. The basic reason for this is the growing age and a increasing fragility of the body. The symptoms come with pain in the lower abdomen, irregular periods, irritating mood, night sweats, burning feeling and so forth. Many women are scared by the very thought of these indications. In fact they can be really petrifying and too troublesome at times.
So in order to minimize the threat of these pre -menopause signals, doctors devised the HRT or the Hormone Replacement Therapy. The HRT works with the aid of two basic hormones- Estrogen and Progesterone. These are naturally produced within a woman’s body. They help in regulating her menstrual cycle. When the level
of these two hormones get disturbed due to age, the pre menopause symptoms start becoming evident. So, the HRT proposes to treat the imbalance of these two hormones via medicines. This therapy thus makes it easy for a woman to manage herself in those crucial times of pain and uneasiness. DES or diethylstilbestrol is a commonly known and eminent drug in this area. It is an artificial form of the estrogen hormone. Wen DES goes in the body and mixes with blood, it tries to balance the disturbed levels of estrogen and progesterone. Ths reduces the uneasiness and pain to a great extent. HRT does not just functions in its respective area. It has many uses besides this too. For instance it manages the cholesterol by reducing the bad cholesterol level in the body and incrementing the good one. It minimizes the amount of fibrinogen (that enables blood clotting) in the body. This prevents the lady from many perils such as the risk of heart attack and brain hemorrhage and the like.
But unfortunately it is not easy to opt for the HRT. There are many factors that have to be considered before going for this treatment. If the woman has a history of heart ailment, breast cancer or osteoporosis etc. she may not be able to be undertake the therapy. The lady’s age, family background, immunity system, eating and drinking habits, whether she smokes, takes drugs…many such issues have to be considered before prescribing the HRT to her. For HRT too like other therapies has a bunch of positive and negative effects and so it is not meant for every woman
