HRT: Clear and practical advice
What you actually need to know
HRT is:
- the most effective treatment for hot flushes and night sweats
- helpful for sleep, mood and quality of life
- often underused due to confusion and misinformation
HRT is NOT:
- mandatory
- suitable for everyone
- the only option
Who should not take HRT
HRT may not be suitable if you have:
- active or past breast cancer (specialist advice required)
- unexplained vaginal bleeding
- high clotting risk
- uncontrolled cardiovascular disease
👉 This is where specialist input matters — not generic advice.
What are the non-hormonal options
If HRT is not suitable or not wanted
Options may include:
- non-hormonal medications for hot flushes
- CBT for menopause-related symptoms
- vaginal oestrogen (local, low risk)
- lifestyle optimisation
👉 Reality: lifestyle alone is rarely enough for moderate–severe symptoms
Vagina and bladder symptoms
Often ignored — but highly treatable
Menopause commonly causes:
- vaginal dryness
- burning or irritation
- pain during sex
- urinary urgency or frequency
- recurrent UTIs
These symptoms:
✔ are common
✔ worsen over time if untreated
✔ respond very well to treatment
