HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY (HRP)

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment used to replace the female hormones that a woman’s body is no longer producing because of the menopause.
During perimenopause and menopause levels of the female hormones (oestrogens and progesterone) fall and ovaries stop producing eggs. At that period of life menstrual cycles stop and women in menopause stop producing eggs (absence of ovulation).

MENOPAUSE MOOD SWINGS

Mood swings that are directly related to menopause in women occur because of natural physical and hormonal changes. Most women experience menopause mood swings around 40-50 years of age – at that period of life the ovaries begin to produce less estrogen and progesterone as well as stopping the production of eggs. These hormones are responsible for controlling serotonin (so called “happy hormone”), which is the brain chemical that controls moods.

POSTMENOPAUSE


Postmenopause is defined as the time after menopause. Usually doctors define menopause as a single moment when a woman has not menstruated for 12 whole consecutive months and after this point a woman is considered to be in postmenopause. Women experience changes and transitions from menopause to postmenopause differently and therefore the age-range of when women first become postmenopausal could be pretty different. Natural postmenopause (as opposed to induced) usually begins in women between their late 40s to early 60s.
