Often misunderstood and shadowed in myth, it is a period of life that is often feared by women and their families. In addition to discussing various physiological changes, this report examines the risks, benefits and guidelines for prescribing hormone replacement therapy to delay the progression of osteoporosis and to prevent cardiovascular disease.
