In contrast to the preliminary results of the WHI conjugated equine estrogen plus medroxyprogesterone acetate arm published 2 years ago, the final results from that arm as well as preliminary data from the conjugated equine estrogen-only arm showed that the panic over hormone treatment for menopausal women was unjustified. Moreover, the data for women younger than 60-years-old was even more reassuring. WHI was a study on elderly women starting hormones under the assumption that it may confer cardioprotection. The results of WHI should not be generalized and should not be a reason to withhold hormones in symptomatic perimenopausal or early post-menopausal women who could benefit from that therapy.
