What is the treatment for Estrogen deficiency state?
Some of the major treatment strategies of this condition are:
- Estrogen therapy: For women between the ages of 25 to 50, a higher dose of estrogen is usually prescribed to reduce the risk of conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, bone loss, etc. However, the dose is dependent on the severity of the patient’s condition. Estrogen is administered via oral, topical, vaginal, or IV route. This process may also reduce the severity of menopausal symptoms. This therapy is usually recommended for a period of one to two years only, since longer therapy may increase the risk of cancer.
- Hormone replacement therapy (HRT): This therapy is used to boost the body’s natural hormone production. It is recommended for women who’re reaching menopause. The hormones in this condition may be administered via topical, vaginal, oral, or IV routes. The negative impact of this therapy is the increased risk of stroke, breast cancer, etc.
- Medication: Medicines containing estradiol or other forms of estrogen are prescribed during the treatment of estrogen deficiency state.
