Menopause
by Florence Cardinal on February 2, 2007

One method of easing these symptoms is hormone replacement therapy. However, according to an article on CBS News:
Hormone replacement therapy, a common treatment for menopausal women, is even more dangerous than previously thought, according to a new study.
The Journal of the American Medical Association's study says hormone replacement therapy, HRT, greatly increases a patient's chance of breast cancer.
However, ABC's Eyewitness News tells us that:
After some newly revised guidelines, the short-term use of hormone therapy has been considered safe in easing the symptoms of menopause.
The North American Menopause society says that the therapy is a "viable option for short-term treatment". However, they insist that the revised guidelines do not make fundamental changes to the current recommendations.

My wife had a testosterone therapy during her menopause and it helped her a lot. The changing moods were gone and she generally felt much better.
