    What are the types of hormone therapies?

    Hormone replacement therapy focuses on restoring the estrogen which your body stops producing after menopause. Estrogen therapy is divided into two types:

    • Hormone replacement therapy for the entire body. Systematic estrogen can be easily used as a tablet, a lotion or gel, a skin patch, a band or a spray, providing a larger amount of estrogen taken all across the body. It is used to relieve some of the normal menopausal symptoms.
    • Vaginal products with a low dose. Low-dose vaginal estrogen treatments, such as creams, tablets, and rings, reduce the amount of estrogen absorbed through the body. As a result, low-dose vaginal treatments are often maintained to treat menopausal vaginal and urinary issues.

    If your uterus hasn’t been removed, your doctor will likely give estrogen as well as progestin or progesterone (progesterone-like medication). It’s because estrogen, when not controlled by progesterone, can increase the growth of the uterine lining, enhancing the risk of developing cancer. You may not even have to consume progestin if the uterus has been removed (hysterectomy).
