Revisiting Estrogen: Efficacy and Safety for Postmenopausal Bone Health by Sandra M. Sacco, Wendy E. Ward

“…While hormone therapy (HT) is an effective means to re-establish endogenous estrogen levels and reduce the risk of future fracture, its use can be accompanied by undesirable side effects such as stroke and breast cancer. In this paper, we revisit the issue of whether HT can be both safe and effective for the prevention of postmenopausal bone loss by examining standard and alternative doses and formulations of HT. …”
