Is Hormone Therapy Safe? Natural Alternatives Explained

Feeling Stuck Between Suffering and Side Effects?

Hot flashes. Night sweats. Mood swings. Low libido. Fatigue.
If menopause is hijacking your quality of life, your doctor may have offered one solution: Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

But maybe you’ve hesitated. Maybe you’ve heard about the risks or just don’t like the idea of synthetic hormones. So, what are your options?

Let’s explore the truth about HRT, what your doctor might not mention, and the natural alternatives that thousands of women are turning to for real relief without the risk.

What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?

HRT involves taking synthetic estrogen and/or progesterone to replace the hormones your body stops producing during menopause.

It can help with:

• Hot flashes
• Night sweats
• Mood swings
• Vaginal dryness
• Bone health

Sounds like a dream fix but there’s more to the story.

Is HRT Safe for Everyone?

While HRT can be effective, it’s not suitable for everyone. Studies have shown that certain types of HRT may increase the risk of:

• Breast cancer
• Blood clots
• Stroke
• Heart disease

It’s especially risky for women with a history of:

• Breast or ovarian cancer
• Liver disease
• Blood clotting disorders

Many women are simply not comfortable with long-term hormone use or want a gentler, natural approach first.

What Are the Best Natural Alternatives to HRT?

If you’re looking for safe, plant-based ways to manage menopause symptoms without synthetic hormones, here’s what actually works:

1. EstroG - The Breakthrough Herbal Solution

One of the most studied natural HRT alternatives, EstroG is a proprietary blend of three traditional Asian herbs:

• Phlomis umbrosa
• Cynanchum wilfordii
• Angelica gigas

Backed by science to:

• Reduce hot flashes and night sweats
• Improve energy, mood, and sleep
• Ease vaginal dryness
• Support hormone balance without side effects

MPlus Balance features this powerful blend, delivering real relief without hormones, soy, or black cohosh.

"I was hesitant about HRT, but Menoplus gave me everything I needed — naturally. The night sweats are gone and I feel balanced again." — Lisa, 52

2. Lifestyle + Nutrition Upgrades

Your daily habits can either support or sabotage your hormone balance. Focus on:

• Whole, fiber-rich foods
• Healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, flaxseed
• Resistance training and light cardio
• Stress reduction like yoga, walking, meditation

This approach helps balance blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and support healthy estrogen metabolism.

3. Supplements That Work with Your Body

In addition to EstroG in MPlus Balance looks for

• Magnesium: For sleep, mood, and nervous system support
• Vitamin D & K2: For bone and immune health
• Adaptogens like ashwagandha or rhodiola for stress and energy

A natural supplement regimen helps restore hormonal harmony instead of replacing hormones directly.

Why Doctors Don’t Always Talk About Natural Options

Many doctors are trained to treat menopause with prescriptions not nutritional or botanical medicine.
That doesn’t mean natural approaches don’t work it means they’re underutilized.

The good news? Clinical studies on Estro G-100 and other herbal ingredients are growing fast and more women are demanding safer, hormone-free options.
