🧬 HRT vs Homeopathy: A Comparison

Factor	Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)	Homeopathy
Definition	Replaces declining hormones (oestrogen, progesterone) with synthetic or bioidentical versions	Uses ultra-diluted natural substances to stimulate the body’s self-healing

Personalization	Generalized protocols	Deeply individualized (mental, emotional, physical)
Common Uses	Menopause, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, osteoporosis prevention	PMS, PCOS, menopause, thyroid issues, irregular cycles
Risks	Cancer risk (especially breast), blood clots, stroke	Minimal to no side effects when prescribed well
Duration	Short- to mid-term use (with monitoring)	Safe for long-term healing
