Hormones and Mental Health

The loss of estrogen during menopause significantly impacts brain function and mental health, increasing the risk of disorders. Fluctuating hormone levels lead to neurotransmitter disruptions, which are often misattributed to external stressors. While hormone replacement therapy isn't for everyone, every woman deserves a thorough discussion about its potential benefits and risks. Despite the prevalence of symptoms, many women are not receiving appropriate diagnoses or treatments.
