Postmenopausal Hormonal Interventions

Meaning

Postmenopausal Hormonal Interventions encompass a range of therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating the physiological consequences of the abrupt decline in endogenous ovarian hormone production following menopause. These interventions, primarily Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) or Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT), involve the exogenous administration of estrogens, often combined with progestogens, to alleviate vasomotor symptoms, prevent bone loss, and improve genitourinary health. Clinical application requires careful risk-benefit stratification based on individual patient history.
