Do recent data on use of menopausal HT and subsequent risk of dementia indicate an association?

Abstract

No. In general, use of hormone therapy (HT) is not associated with risk of dementia, according to a large observational study that included 16,291 cases of women diagnosed with dementia and 68,726 controls who used menopausal HT. Data were obtained from 2 large primary care databases in the United Kingdom.
