Absolutely, but it depends on what symptoms you are treating or what diseases you are trying to prevent. There are multiple herbal supplements that have been found to help against hot flashes, such as black cohash. There are excellent medications for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. There are estrogen medications that can be applied just to the vagina that help treat vaginal dryness. Exercise and diet can also go along way to prevent the side effects of menopause. You should talk to your doctor about your symptoms and the options available to you.
