The rapid wilting of the female body after 50 years is due primarily to hormonal deficiency. Together with the function of the ovaries, the softness and elasticity of the skin slowly disappears, the sexual desire decreases, and instead there appear tides and a constant feeling of irritability. Hormone replacement therapy is a real rescue for women. Assigning femoston, if there are no menstruation or have already begun menopausal malfunctions, it is possible to prevent many unpleasant manifestations of menopause. How does the drug affect the woman's body?
Why is the drug
Femoston - a drug from the group of hormone replacement therapy( HRT).It is prescribed to women for correction of menopausal disorders during artificial or natural menopause. Also, the use of the drug as a prophylaxis for the development of osteoporosis in women after 50 years is shown.
Femoston consists of two components - estrogenic or gestagenic. It is this composition that allows you not to include additional drugs when you use this drug HRT.
Estrogen is the estrogenic part, which is identical in all parameters to the natural. Thanks to him, the therapeutic effect is more effective. The gestagenic component, dydrogesterone, protects the female genital organs from the excessive influence of estrogens. Femoston is a modern low-dose drug for hormone replacement therapy. Earlier precursors of it often contain only an estrogen component, which makes it necessary to additionally take funds with a gestagenic effect, for example, dufastone and others.
Monthly after femoston may or may not be, it all depends on the scheme of prescribing the medicine and the initial hormonal profile of the woman.
For early manifestations of
After 40 to 45 years( for all women individually) gradually the function of the ovaries begins to fade. This is manifested primarily by various disorders of the cycle( bleeding, delay, etc.), as well as changes in metabolism, behavioral reactions, etc. Many ladies at this time note a rapid set of body weight, periodic depressive conditions, frequent problems with sleep. Gradually appears increased sweating, irritability, hot flushes. All these signs can begin to bother the woman against the background of continuing menstruation. Proper treatment of symptoms as pre-menopausal disorders and adequate treatment with hormone replacement therapy help to improve the quality of life.
Treatment of long-term disorders
This includes prevention of atrophic changes in the skin and urinary tract, which appear not immediately, but after several years of persistent menopause. Discomfort with intimate relationships manifests itself in the form of decreased libido, dryness of the vaginal mucosa and associated painful sensations during sex. Also, atrophy can lead to constant irritation of the genital area with possible infection.
Due to the estrogen component of femostone, atrophy of the pelvic floor muscles and a decrease in the tone of the urogenital organs do not occur so quickly and noticeably. And this is the prevention of dysuric disorders, such as urinary incontinence, for example, and loss.
For late disorders
First and foremost, regular and prolonged use of HRT provides a significant reduction in the degree of osteoporosis in women. In fact, even frivolous injuries can lead to serious fractures due to the increased fragility of bones with age. Femoston helps to resist this.
It is also recommended to take HRT in women with cardiovascular pathology of heredity. The effectiveness of prevention in this case is higher the earlier their administration is begun, until atherosclerotic plaques have formed. But the suffered stroke or heart attack is an indicator that it's too late to do something, HRT is contraindicated in such situations.
Also these medicines allow you to maintain beauty, nice appearance and, importantly, help maintain body weight at approximately the same level.
After removal of the ovaries
It is especially important to prescribe hormone replacement therapy for women with an early menopause( up to 45 years), and also to those who, due to some circumstances, were ovaries removed. The fact is that in these cases all the consequences of the deficiency of estrogens develop much more rapidly. Often a woman can feel more or less tolerant, even the number of tides does not excite, but the manifestations of osteoporosis, cardiovascular pathology and other disorders will not keep you waiting in the absence of proper therapy, even if you ignore the obvious symptoms of the disorders.
Effect on the
cycle There are several modes of prescribing drugs for HRT.It is on this and it depends, start monthly on femostone as usual or not.
Cyclic circuit designation
Cyclic mode of admission provides for the continuation of menstrual function in women. Such a scheme is used if the monthly is still there, or even in the case when they are already irregular. In the latter case, no more than one year should elapse after the last bloody discharge. If at this time to use another scheme of reception, continuous, it is possible to provoke various hyperplastic processes inside the uterine cavity. Namely polyps, endometrial hyperplasia and the like. It is due to the fact that the inner layer of the uterine cavity is still very sensitive to estrogens, and even the minimal doses cause it to build up.
Continuous Destination
If there are no monthly ones for more than a year, it is possible to permanently assign the femostone. In this case, menstruation will be gone. But often women during the first six months of admission mark minor bleeding from the genital tract.
If suddenly appeared "monthly" after femostona in continuous mode, do not immediately cancel the drug. It is necessary to observe the selection: analyze the duration, abundance, etc. And it is also necessary to inform your treating gynecologist about this, which will always correctly assess such situations.
Usually, when taking a continuous regimen, spotting can disturb a woman for no more than six to eight months, after which there is a persistent absence of any similarities in menstruation. In the event that, nevertheless, the lady notes and further concerns, it is necessary to undergo additional ultrasound of the small pelvis and perform diagnostic scraping with subsequent histological examination.
Causes of failure
Often, HRT may have irregularities in the menstrual cycle. For example, a woman has not yet finished drinking femoston, came monthly, although they should not be. It can be spotting on the eve of critical days or full-fledged menstruation.
Also, instead of the usual amount of spotting, there can only be a daub. This is also allowed.
All such disorders appear due to the intake of a portion of sex hormones from the outside. There is no reason for much anxiety when they appear, but you should definitely tell your doctor about it. Only a specialist can correctly assess the nature of such secretions.
We recommend to read an article about the violation of the menstrual cycle. From it you will learn about the reasons for the deviation from the norm, the diseases that cause the disorder, the referral to the doctor and the medicamental therapy. When it's time to see a doctor
Against the background of taking any hormonal medication, you may experience side effects and situations in which you should seek medical help.
So, before the appointment of Femoston, the doctor evaluates all the pros and cons, taking into account the indications and contraindications to this type of drugs. The gynecologist should be consulted in the following cases when taking HRT:
- If there are unpleasant sensations in the mammary glands. Usually women notice that the breasts are "poured".This situation is often enough and in most cases does not require the abolition of oral contraceptives. But it is necessary to further examine the mammary glands and perform ultrasound or mammography. On average, after 3-6 months of regular intake of hormonal tablets, these complaints go away.
- In the event that after Femoston "monthly" comes, it is more likely that it can be called an anointing. The main thing is that before this was not and it lasts more than six months. To exclude pathological conditions, additional research is needed.
- When there is a lot of discharge on the background of taking the drug, on a monthly basis or not.
- If the cycle is abnormal for more than 3 months with the use of hormone replacement therapy.
- Also it is necessary to inform the doctor about the occurrence of headaches, often migraine-like, the appearance of various venous complications( thrombophlebitis and others), allergic reactions and other woman-related conditions. Only a doctor can determine whether this is due to taking the drug, and if necessary, change the dose or even cancel it.

The earlier the use of these funds is started, the more effective will be the treatment and prevention. Appoint a therapy regimen and pick up the necessary dosage can only the doctor after a follow-up.
