Hormone therapy following menopause
The Clinical Advisor, 11/09/09
Sherman C – The risk/benefit ratio is highest in younger women who begin hormone therapy (HT) not long after menopause. HT is approved for two indications: relief of vasomotor symptoms and prevention of osteoporosis. Research suggests that HT may be beneficial for preventing diabetes, improving mood, or avoiding urinary tract problems. Using HT long beyond menopause carries increased risks, which, for some women, may be outweighed by the benefits.
