Anti-menopause shot: Scientists develop a drug that can delay menopause forever
Entering menopause marks a significant transition in a woman's life, signaling the end of her reproductive years and bringing with it a host of challenging symptoms like hormonal shifts, hot flashes, and mood swings. However, a promising development has emerged in the form of an anti-menopause shot, offering hope for alleviating these debilitating effects.
Developed by a team of scientists at Oviva Therapeutics in New York, this innovative injection targets the root cause of menopausal symptoms. Acting similarly to the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), which begins to decline around age 25 and significantly drops during menopause (usually between 45 to 55 years), the shot aims to artificially boost AMH levels when administered every few months.
