Ovarian Hormone Therapy (OHT)

Therapy with estrogen and progesterone for specific problems that menopausal women may experience. Historically, OHT was called “hormone replacement therapy”. The three appropriate reasons for OHT since the Women’s Health Initiative and other randomized controlled trial results are: early menopause, chronically disturbing hot flushes/night sweats or osteoporosis in a menopausal woman who also has hot flushes.
