Menopause Safety

Meaning

Menopause safety encompasses the clinical assessment and management of risks and benefits associated with various therapeutic and lifestyle interventions during the menopausal transition and post-menopause. This critical area of women’s health focuses on minimizing the potential for adverse outcomes, such as cardiovascular events, breast cancer, venous thromboembolism, and osteoporosis, while effectively managing debilitating menopausal symptoms. The safety profile is highly individualized, depending on the patient’s medical history, genetic predispositions, and the specific regimen chosen, such as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or non-hormonal alternatives. Regular, evidence-based monitoring is essential to ensure long-term well-being.
