a more tailored approach to using hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms
You'll see a more tailored approach to using hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms.
Initiation. The best time to start hormone therapy is around the time of menopause...to treat symptoms and help reduce bone loss.
Dose. The mantra is still "use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration." Suggest trying 0.3 mg of C.E.S., Premarin, etc...or 25 mcg of an estrogen patch (Estraderm, etc).
