Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can be the answer to sleep deprivation. After recent studies conducted at Medical Research Council (MRC) general Practice Research Framework in London, it was found that HRT can be a potential answer to all sleep-related problems that is becoming a concern these days.

“Benefits of HRT justify a rethink” is the headline in The Times. A recent study of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has shown that women “showed significantly fewer hot flushes, night sweats, aching joints and muscles, insomnia and vaginal dryness than those given a placebo”, the newspaper says. The researchers suggest that current guideline advice based on other research showing that HRT could increase the risk of serious diseases including breast cancer, coronary heart disease and blood clots in selected women should be “revisited”.
