Should I Consider Natural HRT (hormone replacement therapy?

Besides the normal menopausal symptoms (hot flashes, fatigue, depression, heart palpitations, decreased sex drive, vaginal dryness, brain fog) that would cause a woman to seek out information on alternatives to the normal HRT that most doctors prescribe, there are body system changes that are associated with decreased hormone levels.

* Deficiencies of the immune systems causing increased infections
* failure of endocrine system resulting in diabetes or hypothyroidism
* weakening of bones causing fractures and pain or osteoporosis
* changes in eyes resulting in dry eyes, loss of vision or night glare
* changes in the heart and vessels and decreased tolerance for exercise
* slowing of the nervous system causing decreased resting time and unsteadiness
* weakening of the muscles and skeletal systems with decrease in strength

If you have a family history of heart diseases, Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis or breast cancers, there is continuing evidence to support using natural hormone replacement as less of a risk in contributing to future problems.

The goals of natural hormone therapy are to imitate the body's natural processes as much as possible and to bring the body back into natural hormone balance. It also helps to replace the hormones to the extent to provide a ceasing of meno symptoms while providing positive benefits of HRT.

The choice of natural hormone replacement makes sense. Its best attribute is that it is individualized based on the need of each woman. The dosages are all regulated closely and individually for your health needs.

Check with your doctor to see if they are versed in hormone therapy using natural compounds. If they are not, ask if they are willing to try. Check with compound pharmacists in your area for help. It is usually the compounding pharmacists that help educate the doctors with NHRT. They are your greatest asset.
