Abstract
Menopause is difficult because of the clinical symptoms associated with hormonal changes. Every woman experiences these clinical symptoms to a greater or lesser extent. Hormone therapy has a particularly positive effect on vasomotor symptoms and genitourinary symptoms, but also on other symptoms. Hormone therapy consists mainly of estrogen preparations, and in women with a uterus, estrogen +progesterone preparations. There are various routes of administration of these preparations (oral, vaginal, and transdermal). However, since hormone therapy can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, thromboembolic events, and breast cancer, the patient group to receive hormone therapy should be carefully selected.
