A member asked:
Do post-menopausal women have low levels of estrogen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Hi. Yes, loss of estrogen is one of the hallmarks of menopause, and why estrogen/progestin replacement (if uterus in place) or estrogen replacement (if hysterectomized) is beneficial for postmenopausal symptoms.
