Abstract
The cessation of menstruation at the menopause is a great relief for most women. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in sequential regimens re-creates a monthly cycle and period-type bleeds, which are a major cause for dissatisfaction, especially for older, postmenopausal women. Continuous combined therapy aims to provide the benefits of HRT without cyclical bleeding.
