Until a few years ago Hormone Replacement Therapy was the standard answer to menopause. It really evened out the highs and lows then it was determined that HRT greatly increased the risks of certain types of cancer and that was pretty much the end of that. It still may be prescribed today to some females, some of the Docs on this forum could better respond to that.
I know this only because my wife was on HRT for the first couple of years of menopause then went off when the risks became known. She had some minor issues but nothing serious after going off. some women have all kinds of issues and some don't it seems.
Two of our admin. females at work went through it at the same time. We had major battles with them over the A/C setting. It wasn't possible to set it low enough when they were having hot flashes and everyone else was freezing.
