Family Medicine physicians commonly address symptoms of menopause. Treatment options include the use of hormones, but that is often not the best solution due to other health complications, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or other risk factors for stroke. Hormone use is currently recommended only for very significant or severe menopausal issues, says Allison Macerollo, MD, a Family Medicine physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. Menopausal symptoms, which can start early in a woman’s life and last quite a while, include hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, irritability, and lack of interest in sexual activity.
