Perimenopause Naturally: An Integrative Medicine Approach by Tori Hudson, N.D. Perimenopause: signs and symptoms Individual assessments and recommendations about the use of any therapies - whether phytoestrogen, natural hormones, and/or conventional hormone replacement therapy, bisphosphonates for osteoporosis, lipid lowering and antihypertensive medications (to reduce cholesterol and blood pressure) need to be made for each woman based on her unique risk factors, needs and preferences. Natural therapies are very well suited for the perimenopausal woman. Conventional hormone therapy (HRT or ERT) is not the only option available. Women who should not or do not want to take prescription hormones may turn to herbal and nutritional therapies for managing their menopausal symptoms and risk factors. SOURCES Notes Endnotes Yahoo!
