Description

69% of GPs rated this lecture as excellent.

The link between menopausal hormone therapy and cardiovascular disease has been widely researched, with most studies showing MHT to be beneficial. But there are caveats to this finding – including when, what and in whom MHT will have cardiovascular benefits. In this talk, Menopause expert Professor Rod Baber provides an overview of the evidence to date and the current recommendations in terms of MHT’s role in preventing cardiovascular disease as well as its safety in women with pre-existing cardiovascular disease.
