What are the signs you need hormone replacement therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy could be a major key to unlocking health benefits for women going through menopause, according to new research.

A study published Aug. 29 in the journal JAMA Network Open looked at more than 100,000 women in the U.K. and found that those on hormone therapy seemed to biologically age slower than those not taking hormones.

“We found that postmenopausal women who historically received (hormone therapy) were biologically younger than those who did not receive HT, regardless of socioeconomic background,” the authors wrote. “Our findings highlight the importance of emphasizing HT use in postmenopausal women to promote inclusive healthy aging.”

It’s a stark contrast from past research, which discouraged the use of hormone therapy for most women.
