Research into ovarian ageing is exploring whether an existing medicine could influence the rate at which ovarian function changes. This is an important scientific question, but the work is still at pilot-trial stage.
Laboratory markers can help researchers investigate an idea, yet they do not automatically show that menopause will be delayed by a specific number of years or that longer-term use is safe. Benefits, adverse effects and interactions all need appropriate evaluation.
This is not an established menopause treatment or a reason to source the medicine independently. Current symptoms and health concerns should be discussed using existing evidence-based care.
