	Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) Information on Healthline (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		HRT is most often used to treat symptoms of menopause such as "hot flashes," vaginal dryness, mood swings, sleep disorders, and decreased sexual desire.
		Based on early studies, many physicians used to believe that HRT might be beneficial for reducing the risk of heart disease and bone fractures caused by osteoporosis (thinning of the bones) in addition to treating menopausal symptoms.
		HRT should not be given strictly for the prevention of high cholesterol or heart disease.

	Should I use hormone replacement therapy (HRT)? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		It is true that HRT lowers the risk of osteoporosis and possibly colon cancer.
		Within the first 2 years, HRT use slightly increased the risk of blood clots in the lungs (pulmonary embolism) and legs (deep vein thrombosis) in all healthy postmenopausal women regardless of risk factors.
		HRT does not provide protection from dementia or cognitive impairment, as was previously believed.

		Preliminary analysis of the clinical data indicated that HRT use was associated with age, and thus that age is a possible confounding factor for the relationship between gene expression and HRT use (Table 1).
		Figures 4a and 4b indicate a negative correlation between the effects of HRT and estrogen; the genes that are downregulated by HRT are predominantly upregulated by estrogen, and vice versa.
		Paradoxically, although HRT is considered an ER agonist, the expression profile induced after prolonged use of HRT was opposite to that of estradiol and consistent with tamoxifen effects (Figure 4) in MCF-7 cells.

	HRT and breast cancer [Dec 2003; 118-3]
		Table 1 shows the main results, in terms of the number of diagnoses of breast cancer or breast cancer deaths per 1,000 women, the relative risk, and the number of users of HRT needed to generate an extra case of breast cancer diagnosis or breast cancer death.
		HRT products containing both oestrogen and progestagen were associated with the highest risk of breast cancer diagnosis, particularly over a longer time.
		Oestrogen-only HRT preparations, and tibolone, and other preparations, were also associated with higher risk of breast cancer diagnosis, but at a lower level than with oestrogen and progestagen (Table 1).

	Should I use hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?
		However, it is now known that HRT reduces the risks of osteoporosis and colon cancer but increases the risks of breast cancer, heart attack, stroke, blood clots, and Alzheimer's disease as well as other forms of dementia in a small number of women.
		As a result, women's health experts now recommend that HRT should not be used for reasons other than short-term menopausal symptom relief or for severe osteoporosis risk (when nonhormonal treatments have been considered and/or tried).
		You have been taking HRT for longer than 4 or 5 years and are concerned about increased cancer, heart disease, and dementia risks (an HRT-related increase in dementia has been observed in women older than 65; the risk of later dementia in women taking HRT in their 50s is not known).

		This study on HRT was made possible by earlier collaborative research with German cancer registries and tumor centers in the field of gynecological cancer and exogenous steroid hormone use [14-16].

	HRT News - Hormone Replacement Therapy Could Hide Breast Cancer
		A five-year study of 1,557 women with breast cancer aged 55 or older found women on HRT had an increased risk of recording "false negatives" during routine mammogram's.
		Women were identified as either non-users or users of HRT although the study did not separate women by the different types of hormone replacement therapy used.
		Prof Kavanagh said more research was needed before scientists could offer advice about whether women on HRT should be screened more frequently than the recommended every two years or whether ultrasound should be used in preference to mammogram's.

		With respect to attributable risk, a 50 year old woman has a 1 in 397 chance of developing a breast cancer that she would not otherwise have developed if she takes estrogens for a ten year period.
		This risk is generally outweighed by the cardiovascular benefits with 1 in 270 and 1 in 152 cardiovascular events prevented respectively for the 50 and 60 year old.
		HRT would be usually be recommended for short term treatment of symptoms such as hot flashes, urogenital atrophy, and mood changes or depression.

		The analytic frameworks in Figures 1 (25 KB) and 2 (17 KB) show the target populations, interventions, and health outcome measures we examined for the overall question of the benefits and harms of HRT used by postmenopausal women to prevent chronic conditions.
		We were concerned with HRT as chemoprevention for primary prevention and therefore focused on the use of either estrogen alone (unopposed) or estrogen combined with progestins (combined) in healthy, postmenopausal women.
		We considered the relationship between HRT and dementia to be an uncertain benefit because of lack of RCT evidence and the methodologic limitations and inconsistencies among observational studies.

	HRT II
		A simplistic (and not totally accurate) way to think of how the HRT II records its images is to assume that if the beam strikes any tissue that is in focus in the plane of its scan, the location the tissue and the depth of the scan plane are recorded by the HRT II computer.
		Although the HRT II generates a long list of stereometric disc parameters, the rim area, rim volume, cup shape measure, height variation contour, and mean retinal thickness seem to be the most useful in making a baseline evaluation and for tracking glaucoma progression.

	Imaginis - Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
		However, recent research has found that HRT may not provide these benefits and may pose other risks, including an increased risk of ovarian cancer (with long-term use) and cancer of the uterine lining (in women do not take progestin with estrogen).
		While HRT is highly effective at relieving menopausal symptoms and may provide protection against conditions such as osteoporosis, there is also some evidence that supports a link between HRT and an increased risk for breast cancer.
		Though these numbers can be alarming, some experts believe that limited, short-term use of HRT can be safe among some women who are not at high risk of breast cancer or other diseases.

	Hormone Replacement: A Risk Factor for Asthma?
		Use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may increase the risk of adult-onset asthma in women, according to research presented at CHEST 2000.

		Barr and colleagues are currently analyzing the study data to determine if HRT worsens preexisting asthma, as determined by the number of urgent physician visits, emergency department visits, and hospitalizations.

	Going off HRT
		I was on HRT (1 mg estrace and 2.5 mg provera continuously) for 1 1/2 years, and I gained about 40 pounds and got just miserable and depressed (no doubt in part because I gained weight).
		The purpose of HRT is to remove the unpleasant symptoms of the change in hormone levels by replacing the missing hormones artificially.
		However, since HRT is an imperfect tool doing a poorly understood job in an aging body, as with many drugs, you simply have to collect the best expert opinion you can, and make a bet based on your estimate of the probabilities and risks.

		Fortunately, in the patients with any of these risk factors, the use of intensive statin treatment (that is, high-dose statin [atorvastatin 80 mg/day]) lowered the CRP level relative to treatment with a standard-dose statin (pravastatin 40 mg/day).
		Thus, for smokers, diabetics, and other subgroups, CRP was lowered by about 1 mg/L by increasing the intensity of statin therapy.
		These data have been confirmed elsewhere and have raised the possibility that part of the early thrombotic hazard that might be associated with initiation of HRT may relate in some way to a proinflammatory effect.
