What should I do before starting hormone replacement therapy?

Before starting HRT, your healthcare provider will likely conduct a comprehensive physical exam to ensure you are healthy enough for hormone therapy. Blood tests can help determine the levels of hormones in your body and identify any pre-existing medical conditions that could be affected by hormone therapy.

Hormone therapy is not risk-free. In some women, hormone therapy can increase the risk of breast cancer, stroke, and blood clots. It’s important to weigh the risks against the benefits by talking to your doctor.

How long will I have to take hormone replacement therapy?

Most women take hormone therapy for the shortest time possible and at the lowest dose. Evidence shows serious health risks such as blood clots, breast cancer, and stroke increase after five years of use. Your personal or family history of these and other health risks will affect your decision regarding hormone replacement therapy.

Will hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms return when I quit hormone replacement therapy?
