Best practice for HRT: Unpicking the evidence

Abstract

These NICE guidelines should enable clinicians to feel more confident about offering HRT to eligible women. They should also be able to help women to make a more informed choice regarding their treatment, which can now be based on a more balanced review of the evidence. HRT is generally a safe, effective treatment of the menopause and as such should be considered for many more women than it has been in the recent past.
