Premature menopause is menopause that happens before the age of 40 â whether it is natural or induced. Women who enter menopause early get symptoms similar to those of natural menopause, like hot flashes, emotional problems, vaginal dryness, and decreased sex drive.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in menopause is medical treatment in postmenopausal, perimenopausal, and surgically menopausal women. Its goal is to mitigate discomfort caused by diminished circulating estrogens and progesterone in menopause.
