HRT for beginners: Your complete guide to menopause hormone therapy

As a woman in her late 40s, I can't open Instagram, a news roundup or my email — much less the group chat — without seeing something about hormone therapy or menopause. Sure, the algorithm is just doing its thing (unlike my periods), but these really are hot topics now (sorry, brain fog prevented a clever hot flash analogy). Not only has search interest in hormone replacement therapy (HRT) more than tripled over the past five years, according to Google Trends, but celebrities and influencers are talking about it — and it's all over the news. It's curious, then, that prescribing rates are in the basement. Usage was a mere 4.7% among postmenopausal women, according to a 2024 study in JAMA Health Forum, and recent research suggests there hasn't been an uptick since. "It's surprising," says Dr. Stephanie Faubion, medical director of The Menopause Society and director of the Mayo Clinic Center for Women's Health. "Not every woman needs to be on hormone therapy, but a lot who need it probably aren't getting it." Hormone curious? Feeling overwhelmed by information? Just want to wake up not drenched in sweat? You're in the right place. What is hormone therapy for menopause? You probably know the term "hormone replacement therapy" or HRT, but experts prefer "menopause hormone therapy" (MHT) or just hormone therapy. "It's more accurate. We're not trying to replace hormones," Faubion says. "It takes a much lower dose to manage symptoms than what the premenopausal ovary would have made." Think about estrogen and/or progestin like a supplement rather than a replacement. Officially, MHT is for healthy women under the age of 60 and within 10 years of menopause to help with hot flashes and vaginal changes like dryness and painful sex. Beyond hot flashes: How hormone therapy can help Not to get into semantics again, but saying MHT "helps" is like saying weighted vests are just … popular. Even impressive stats like a 55% to 90% improvement in hot flashes, per a review in the Journal of Menopausal Medicine, seem to understate things. "For myself and many patients, hormone therapy has been life-changing," says Elana Bodzin, DPT, a pelvic floor physical therapist and menopause coach in Pleasant Ridge, Mich. "I was miserable with hot flashes and fatigue. Almost immediately I was sleeping through the night. My hot flashes were gone, my energy was back, my mental health improved; it was astounding how quickly I felt human again." Approved by the FDA for hot flashes (called vasomotor symptoms or VMS) and vaginal changes (aka genitourinary syndrome of menopause or GSM), MHT often has a ripple effect on other symptoms, quality of life and overall health, says Dr. Robert Kauffman, professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Texas Tech University in Amarillo, and a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. For vaginal health, estrogen can alleviate dryness, increase blood flow and restore elasticity to vaginal tissues, which may help you get your groove back in the bedroom, as well as improve some urinary or incontinence issues, Bodzin says. Good news if your "I have to go" suddenly turns into "I have to go change my undies." And those are just the benefits you can feel. A review in the journal Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism found that MHT prevents bone loss and reduces the risk of fracture by 20% to 40%. It's also been shown to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, colon cancer and dementia, especially in high-risk groups. Is hormone therapy safe? The short answer: Yes. But, like anything, caveats exist. According to the Menopause Society, women with a history of breast or uterine cancer, cardiovascular or severe liver disease, blood clots or unexplained uterine bleeding are generally advised to avoid systemic menopausal hormone therapy — meaning the kind that travels through your entire body via options like pills or patches. "Otherwise, risks of adverse effects are very low for healthy women in their 40s and 50s — but not zero," says Faubion. "They include a slight increased risk for blood clots, stroke — and breast cancer with combo estrogen/progesterone therapy." Putting the risks in perspective Are those things scary? Sure. But risks can be minimized and the benefits tend to far outweigh the potential problems — especially when put in context. Take breast cancer. Only after three to five years of certain hormone regimens does breast cancer risk begin to rise — and even then, it's modest, states a 2025 report in the European Journal of Cancer. "We're talking a few extra cases per thousand after five years of estrogen plus progestogen therapy," says Faubion. "Consider other factors that also increase the risk of breast cancer, like being inactive or overweight or having one to two glasses of wine a night. Somehow hormone therapy has been demonized in ways other things haven't." The lingering fear factor Indeed, the biggest problem with hormone therapy may be its history. Back in the late 90s, MHT use was as high as 27%. Then the Women's Health Initiative study initially linked hormones to increased risk of heart attack, stroke and breast cancer — but those risks were most pronounced in women over 60, particularly those who started treatment many years after menopause. Panic-inducing headlines followed, and usage plummeted. Since then, additional analysis and new studies have shown minimal or no health risks in younger women using lower doses for shorter periods. The science evolved, but public opinion didn't. "There's still an unreasonable fear among both women and physicians. I'm stunned how many physicians are afraid of it; we've lost an entire generation who could have benefited," Kaufmann says. Whether MHT is right for you is a decision to make with your care provider based on health history, symptoms, and other factors. "If a woman watched her mother die of breast cancer, she may not want to take any chance, and that's OK, but others may feel differently," Faubion says. "Hormone therapy isn't the anti-aging miracle it's sometimes touted online but it's also not an evil thing out there killing people." Types of hormone therapy: Finding what works for you There are two main types of hormones, and within those, approximately a million ways to deliver them, give or take: Systemic: This estrogen-plus-progestin therapy is absorbed into your bloodstream and travels throughout the body — helping with classic menopause symptoms like hot flashes and bone loss. It comes in pills, patches, sprays, gels or high-dose vaginal rings (like Femring). Local or vaginal: This treatment (also called vaginal estrogen therapy) stays mostly in the vaginal tissues, easing symptoms like dryness, irritation and recurring UTIs — without significantly raising hormone levels in the rest of your body. It's available as creams, suppositories, vaginal gels and low-dose vaginal rings (like Estring). This type of hormone therapy does not increase your risk of blood clots or cancer. And it may even be safe for breast cancer patients and others who aren't candidates for systemic hormones. What you choose depends on personal preference, symptoms, health history — even insurance. Pills, patches and gels are often covered; vaginal rings, not so much. "We often start with transdermal estrogen — like a patch or gel — versus a pill because it bypasses the liver, so the risk of a blood clot is thought to be lower," Faubion says. Your health care provider might also suggest both systemic and local vaginal hormones. 'The lowest dose of systemic may work well for hot flashes, but often isn't enough to restore the vaginal tissues,' she says. One non-negotiable: If you have a uterus and take systemic estrogen, you must also take the hormone progestin, which protects against uterine cancer, reports the American Cancer Society. You can get a 2-in-1 or separate meds. Or, if you have a hormonal IUD like Mirena (perimenopause is hard enough without throwing an unintended pregnancy into the mix, amiright?), it takes care of the progestin. Dosage and monitoring The dose prescribed depends on different factors, including how far into menopause you are, age and severity of symptoms. For example, a menopausal woman in her 50s likely needs a lower dose than a 39-year-old who just had her ovaries removed and is thrust into menopause, Faubion says. The goal: Find the lowest effective dose, which may take trial and error. That's why tracking symptoms and follow-ups are important — as is speaking up if you don't get relief. "Unfortunately, some clinicians start with the lowest dose and never raise it, so women may not achieve symptom relief," Faubion says. Similarly, say something if you feel off. Just as some women don't do well with certain types of hormonal birth control, certain forms of MHT could trigger emotional or physical changes that others wouldn't, Bodzin says. With options on options, you can switch things up. Finding a provider fluent in hormones You might also need to reconsider your health care provider. The ob-gyn who expertly delivered your babies or handled your Pap smears with care may not have the same expertise — or enthusiasm — when it comes to menopause management. In fact, according to Mayo Clinic Proceedings, while 94% of ob-gyn residents say it's important to be trained in menopause care, more than a third wouldn't prescribe hormone therapy to a healthy, newly menopausal woman who could benefit. It's also not uncommon for clinicians to downplay symptoms or, because many were never educated on menopause management and aren't sure what to do, they may default to doing nothing, Faubion says. If this happens to you, it's time for a second opinion, allowing the Menopause Society to be your guide with their provider search. Still, some women are bypassing traditional office visits altogether in favor of online clinics that specialize in hormone therapy. While telemedicine clinics are convenient and improve accessibility, experts warn that MHT shouldn't be like shopping online for a pair of readers. "You still need regular pelvic exams and an assessment to be sure you don't have uterine cancer or other issues," reminds Kauffman, noting that follow-ups and monitoring are key. "Expanding access to care is a good thing, but I get some heartburn over what can't be done through the internet." In short, if you do go virtual, make sure you also have IRL care too. And regardless of where you go, remember: You are your best advocate. "It's never the right answer to be told nothing can be done," Faubion says.

Fracture Risk Rises Unexpectedly With HRT

Yana Vinogradova wanted to know what happens to the bones of women who withdraw from hormone replacement therapy or HRT—a common strategy when patients no longer have hot flashes or quit taking the drug for other reasons. A mathematician and HRT researcher at the University of Nottingham, Vinogradova was inspired to mine primary care data for answers after a friend told her she planned to take HRT. Her friend had no hot flashes or other symptoms but was compelled by the evidence that bones are stronger in postmenopausal women who are on HRT.
