Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment to relieve symptoms of the menopause. It replaces hormones that are at a lower level as you approach the menopause.
The main benefit of HRT is that it can help relieve most of the menopausal symptoms, including: hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness and reduced sex drive.
Many of these symptoms pass after a few years, but they can be unpleasant and taking HRT can offer relief for many women.
Whilst the benefits of HRT often outweigh the risks, some types of HRT can increase your risk of breast cancer and blood clots.
