Perimenopausal & Menopausal Therapy Program

Although the age of the onset of menopause has not changed in several hundred years, the life expectancy of women has nearly doubled in the 20th century, meaning that today's women in developed countries live approximately one-third of their lives in menopause (defined as the "lack of estrogen"). Estrogen loss causes many problems  affecting the heart, bone, brain, skin and other organs. The Yale Menopause Program offers counseling, testing and intervention to proactively address multiple issues associated with menopause, including cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, effects of estrogen deprivation on the brain (hot flashes, mood changes, sleep disturbances), skin and other organs. We offer counseling as to the risks and benefits of hormone replacement therapy and discussion of  alternatives.
