Treatments

Menopause itself requires no medical treatment. Instead, most menopausal treatments focus on relieving your signs and symptoms and on preventing or lessening chronic conditions that may occur. Treatments are as following:

1.    Alternative treatments

• Acupuncture
• Massage
• Aroma Therapy
• Beauty Therapy
• Reflexology
• Diet
• Exercise

2.    Menopause traditional treatments

• Estrogen replacement therapy - This is the most effective treatment option for relieving hot flushes. Your doctor may recommend estrogen in the lowest dose needed to relief your menopausal symptoms. The recommended dose depends mostly on your personal and family history.
• Progestins - Clinical studies have shown that the additional of progestin to an estrogen treatment for at least 12 days per cycle reduce, but does not eliminate, the incidence of enlargement of benign tumors of the uterus (fibroids). It also help to eliminate potential risk of cancer of the uterus in women with an intact uterus.
• 1500mg calcium daily
• Low-dose antidepressant
• Vaginal estrogen - This uses to relieve vaginal dryness. Estrogen can be administered locally using a vaginal tablet, ring or cream.
