1. hormone-replacement therapy

   Hormone-replacement therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to supplement the body with hormones that it is no longer producing or producing in insufficient amounts. This often involves the use of synthetic or natural hormones, and is commonly used to ease symptoms caused by hormonal changes during menopause, or for individuals who are transitioning genders. Other conditions, like hypothyroidism or adrenal insufficiency, may also be treated with hormone replacement therapy. The specific type of hormone used in treatment depends on what hormone is deficient or lacking in the individual.

3. David Geier:

   While I do think that there may be some role for hormone replacement therapy or shoe inserts for active individuals in a preventative or treatment sense for these problems, someone who is interested in pursuing one of these treatments should consider speaking to an orthopaedic surgeon or to his or her doctor, for instance, people have different anatomy of their feet, such as high arches or flat feet, and might benefit from shoe inserts or orthotics, while others might not.
