[Title] => Women’s dilemma: To undergo HRT or not
[Summary] => Simply put, menopause is the time in a women’s life when she stops having menstrual periods. During menopause, a woman’s hormone production drops below the level required to continue her periods. Thus, it changes the rate and patterns of hormone release.
The average age for menopause is 51, but it could happen as early as in the late 40s. The official start of menopause is declared when a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period.

[Title] => Hormone replacement therapy: The answers are in
[Summary] => The whole subject of hormone replace-ment therapy (HRT) for post-menopausal women has swirled in uncertainty for years. Physicians encouraged its use and experts cited scientific evidence to back up the practice. Then, in July 2002, the landmark Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study, the best research ever done on hormone replacement therapy in healthy women, showed that the treatment actually increases the risks of heart disease and breast cancer, outweighing any protection against fractures and colon cancer.

[Title] => Posthysterectomy HRT linked to Parkinson’s
[Summary] => Unopposed estrogen use by women with a history of hysterectomy appears to triple their risk of Parkinson’s disease as reported at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology. In contrast, use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may reduce – not boost – Parkinson’s risk in women with a natural menopause, particularly when HRT use is long in duration and recent, added one doctor in epidemiology at Stanford (California) Universtiy. She reported on 367 postmenopausal women who participated in the case-control Parkinsonian Epidemiology at Kaiser (PEAK) study.

[Title] => HRT’s bone benefit lingers for years after use
[Summary] => Women who took hormone replacement therapy for 2-3 years as part of Danish clinical trials had denser bones than untreated subjects 5-15 years later, researchers reported at the 10th World Congress on the Menopause. What you have gained, you have gained forever. The impact of that is enormous said by a professor at the Center for Clinical and Basic Research in Ballerup, Denmark.

[Title] => Nothing new in case-control study of long-term HRT, breast cancer
[Summary] => There’s nothing new under the sun.
That’s how doctors view the conclusions of a widely publicized case-control study that examined the long-term effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in relation to breast cancer among more than 700 women who were post-menopausal. The article concluded that the incidence of breast cancer was increased by 60 percent-85 percent in recent long-term users of HRT whether they used estrogen alone or estrogen plus progestin.
