Q. I am on hormone therapy for the menopause — can I add herbal medicine?
Many people do combine them. Please do not stop the hormone therapy on your own.
📝 Detailed Answer
A randomised controlled trial of Gamisoyo-san for facial flushing and sleep disturbance in menopausal women, and a randomised double-blind trial for menopausal depression and anxiety, have been reported.
Starting and stopping hormone therapy is the judgement of the doctor who prescribed it. We do not reduce it on our judgement.
If you have a history of breast cancer or thrombosis, you must tell us. There are medicinal herbs we do not use accordingly.
