Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is often prescribed to women who have undergone a hysterectomy in order to help manage menopausal symptoms that may arise. HRT works by replacing the hormones that are lost during the procedure, which can help reduce symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings. It is important to discuss the benefits and risks of HRT with your gynecologists, as there is a potential for certain side effects. Additionally, while HRT may provide relief from menopausal symptoms, it does not necessarily prevent long-term health issues such as osteoporosis or heart disease.
