# What types of HRT treatments are available?

There are various types of HRT, and the best choice for you will be tailored to your individual health needs and medical history. The main categories include:

- Oestrogen only HRT: Typically prescribed for women who have had a hysterectomy (womb removed).
- Combined HRT (oestrogen and progestogen): Recommended for women who still have their womb. The progestogen is included to protect the womb lining from thickening.

HRT can be taken in different forms for your convenience, such as tablets, skin patches, gels, or sprays. Our online doctors will discuss these options with you to find the most suitable and effective delivery method for your lifestyle.
