At present, most women seek hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for the control of climacteric symptoms. However, greater knowledge has led more women to consider using HRT for its long-term benefits of reducing the risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease, with the latter possibly becoming the most important reason for long-term HRT use. The authors show the beneficial effects of oestrogen on the vascular system in a clear, easy-to-read style.
