Answer to Question 1

In the past, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was used to help maintain vaginal elasticity and lubrication, restore regular sleep patterns, and reduce hot flashes and depression. It was also helpful in decreasing the risks for development of osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and colorectal and lung cancers (Brinton & Schairer, 1997; Mahabir et al., 2008; Parry, 2008).

Answer to Question 2

The ovaries have dual responsibilities: to produce ova and to secrete hormones.
