Depends on what. For example, drugs for high blood pressure and diabetes need to take mandatory. We also need vitamin-mineral complexes. As for hormone replacement therapy, it is not prescribed for all women.

What medication during menopause

First of all, to improve metabolism. To this end, all women during menopause are appointed by vitamin-mineral complexes. Take not need any vitamins, namely those drugs that are intended to take during menopause. These drugs typically contain active complexes that are capable of actually 'budge' metabolism Improves metabolism and losing weight without dieting   and improve the condition of women.

Vitamins and minerals, it is desirable to make all women during menopause, as it is the prevention of complications arising due to lower secretion of female sex hormones, and metabolic disorders.

In case menopause occurs without any violations by health than vitamin drugs can not accept any more. But be sure to reduce the calorie diet and move more. After the rate of metabolism decreases and everything that we ate too much, it is deposited in the form of fat.

The peculiarity of obesity during menopause is that the fat is stored in the abdomen and abdominal organs, and it is very dangerous. This oil has a higher biological activity than normal subcutaneous fat, it produces compounds that can adversely affect lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Therefore, reducing calorie diet and an increase in motor activity - a measure necessary to prevent serious complications of menopause such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, type 2 diabetes and others.

Medicines from complications arising during menopause

These drugs should be taken necessarily. For example, drugs that lower blood pressure. These drugs are prescribed during menopause are not from time to time, and for continuous use, since they prevent these serious consequences of high blood pressure, as myocardial infarction and hemorrhagic stroke.

Another significant complication of menopause is diabetes Diabetes - threatening and incurable disease   2nd type. At the same time appointed hypoglycemic agents. If they are not taken, it could lead to the development of such a serious condition as hyperglycemic coma, "pull" from which it is possible not every patient.

Do I need to appoint a hormone replacement therapy during menopause

If the woman's condition is satisfactory, the HRT can and assignable, but found that at any hormones during menopause have a positive effect. Under their influence, they are improving all types of metabolism. Improving protein metabolism leads to the fact that the skin of a woman becomes more supple, smooth wrinkles, improves the condition of hair and nails.

The normalization of lipid metabolism leads to weight loss. In some cases, the female sex hormone estrogen gives a negative side effect is weight gain. But even this side effect is not so bad, because under the influence of estrogen developing obesity of female type, which is not as dangerous as obesity male pattern (central).

HRT can significantly reduce blood sugar in the case during menopause showed signs of type 2 diabetes. Sometimes the background of such treatment can be completely abandon antidiabetic drugs.

But the most effective use of HRT for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Under the influence of estrogen relieves spasms of blood vessels and reduces blood pressure. The positive effect of estrogen on the metabolism of fat prevents the development of atherosclerosis, and hence its complications such as angina Angina - the consequences of the activity   and the rest, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke.

Yes, and just the general condition of the woman under the influence of hormones is significantly improved. Gone rush of blood to the head and upper body, weakness, lethargy, irritability Irritability - you try to control my temper , Bad mood and a sense of insecurity. Therefore, every woman during menopause, it makes sense to settle for HRT.

What exactly can not be done - it is treated with hormones on their own, without consulting a doctor. Hormones are very active influence on the body and stimulate the many processes. Especially dangerous is to take hormones if there is a malignant tumor of the uterus, ovary or breast. Under the influence of hormones, it will quickly grow and metastasize.

Medicines Medicines strife. Some drugs can not be used, but there are those without which during menopause can not do.
