Could HRT work for you?

‘Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the gold standard treatment for menopausal symptoms – available as a skin patch, gel, spray or tablet,’ says Dr Newson. ‘It works by correcting the hormone deficiency and should help to ease hot flushes within a few weeks.’ Speak to your GP about whether it’s right for you.
