Coronary heart disease is relatively uncommon in premenopausal women but shows a sharp increase after menopause. The decline of endogenous ovarian hormones is commonly assumed to be a major component of this phenomenon. The effects of estrogens on the vasculature have been investigated extensively in previous studies. However, the effects of estrogens on myocardial function have not been evaluated in humans. We sought to examine the effects of hormone therapy (HT) on myocardial function and cardiac natriuretic peptides in postmenopausal women with chest pain and a normal coronary angiogram.
