Abstract

A recent study from the University of Colorado in Aurora suggests that targeting the NK3 receptor on KNDy neurons in the hypothalamus could be an effective strategy for alleviating vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause. This research explores the potential of neurokinin receptor antagonists as nonhormone treatments for menopausal symptoms, offering new possibilities for managing these symptoms without hormone therapy. The study emphasizes the importance of finding alternative treatments for menopausal symptoms, especially for women who are unable or unwilling to undergo hormone therapy.
