Abstract
The standard treatment for women who have menopausal symptoms was previously hormone replacement therapy (HRT); however, women have been increasingly looking for alternatives. In 2015, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) published guidelines on the management on short-term symptoms in the menopause, which has brought HRT back into focus. Despite this, many women still desire a different therapy. This article gives an overview of prescribed alternatives to HRT and discusses lifestyle and diet, alternative and complementary therapies, vaginal problems and patient support, as well as nurse education.
