<\/label>Menopause is certainly a time of change, but it need not be terribly uncomfortable. The decline in <\/span>ovarian<\/span> production of <\/span>estrogen<\/span> can bring with it <\/span>hot flashes<\/span> and vulvovaginal tissues changes that make intercourse painful. Lower <\/span>estrogen<\/span> levels can lead to depleted bone mineral density, increasing the risk of broken bones. <\/span>Hormone replacement therapy<\/span> (<\/span>HRT<\/span>), in the form of <\/span>Prempro<\/span> pills or others, can address these <\/span>menopausal issues<\/span> if need be. <\/span>Prempro<\/span>, or any <\/span>HRT<\/span> for that matter, is not always the right answer. <\/span>Side effects<\/span> are a significant reason why you might want to know about some alternatives. With that in mind, we will take you on a tour of the options besides <\/span>Prempro<\/span> for relief of <\/span>menopausal symptoms<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat can I take in place of <\/span>Prempro<\/span>?<\/span><\/h2>\nHRT<\/span> can be provided in a number of ways. While <\/span>Prempro<\/span> is a combination hormone pill with both <\/span>estrogen<\/span> and <\/span>progesterone<\/span> components, other <\/span>HRT<\/span> products have only <\/span>estrogen therapy<\/span>, have a different synthetic <\/span>progestin<\/span> in combination with <\/span>estrogen<\/span>, or come in the form of an injection, patch, cream, or vaginal insert. Each hormonal product has its own niche, based on ease of use or unique adverse effect profile. Non-hormonal options also exist and may be best for some. <\/span>Prempro<\/span> is a <\/span>brand name<\/span> drug and currently does not have a generic version available on the market. Let\u2019s review the alternatives to <\/span>Prempro<\/span> and focus on the most common choices.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nCompare Prempro
