YFCF Newspaper Sessions: Menopause

The most effective fix

for almost all the woes of menopause

is estrogen replacement therapy.

ERT almost always zaps hot flashes,

soothes vaginal dryness,

improves bladder problems,

evens out mood swings

and clears up short term memory loss.

It also combats

the more serious effects

of estrogen deficiency:

osteoporosis and an elevated risk

of hearth attacks.

The hormone retards bone loss

(most dramatically if prescribed

within three years of the last period)

and cuts deaths from hearth attacks in half.

Unfortunately,estrogen is not a magical

anti-menopause potion.

There's a lot going for it,

but there are a lot of holes in the data.
