Symptom relief:
- Hot flashes and night sweats — reduced by up to 75–90%
- Sleep improvement — progesterone also has a mild sleep-promoting effect
- Mood, anxiety, irritability, and brain fog
- Vaginal dryness, atrophy, and painful intercourse
- Urinary urgency and recurrent UTIs
- Libido — many women experience improved sexual desire and satisfaction
Long-term health:
- Bone density — one of the most effective ways to prevent osteoporosis and fractures
- Heart health — therapy started within 10 years of menopause onset may reduce risk of heart disease
