Sarah Jenkins, RN (AI Plain-English Editor) • Key Takeaways
  • Women with a history of PMS and women with a high anxiety-related personality might respond with adverse mood effects to a combination of estrogen and sequential progestin and therefore a thorough evaluation should be made, at the consultation for hormone therapy, of mood benefits or disadvantages before initiation of treatment and there.
  • Study Design & Sample: Randomized Controlled Trial published in Climacteric : the journal of the International Menopause Society (N = 106 human participants).

What the Study Found (In Plain English)

Published in Climacteric : the journal of the International Menopause Society (2006), this randomized controlled trial evaluating 106 human participants investigated: When postmenopausal women are treated with sequential hormone therapy (HT), cyclical mood swings similar to symptoms seen in the premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) are described. Key clinical takeaway: Women with a history of PMS and women with a high anxiety-related personality might respond with adverse mood effects to a combination of estrogen and sequential progestin and therefore a thorough evaluation should be made, at the consultation for hormone therapy, of mood benefits or disadvantages...

Study Limitations & Caveats Before You Act

Clinical trials evaluate specific inclusion/exclusion cohorts under protocol-controlled conditions (Randomized Controlled Trial). Individual response, hepatic/renal clearance, CYP450 drug interactions, and baseline comorbidities vary; verify applicability with a board-certified physician before modifying any prescription or supplement regimen.
