Abstract:
:Hormone replacement therapy may increase the quality of life of postmenopausal women. Any regimen need to offer long-term endometrial safety. It is a standard to consider the co-administration of a sequential progestogen when estrogen replacement should be initiated in non-hysterectomized women. It is almost impossible to decide which combination of an estrogen and a progestogen seems to be optimal as individual tolerance of HRT may very well limit acceptability despite metabolic benefits and proven endometrial safety of a given combination. Several combinations of oral and transdermal estradiol or conjugated equine estrogens, oral progestogens, transdermal norethisterone acetate and levonorgestrel, and intrauterine levonorgestrel may achieve endometrial safety. It is noteworthy that there is no uniform correlation between the timing of onset of bleeding induced by any sequential estrogen and progestogen replacement and a certain pattern of histology. Therefore, although it is likely, there is no absolute reassurance that regular bleeding on or after day 11 of progestogen administration rules out abnormal histopathology. Transvaginal sonography seems not to be of pivotal importance to screen asymptomatic women on replacement therapy for detection of serious abnormal endometrial findings such as hyperplasia and endometrial cancer. Continuous combined hormone replacement therapy or the use of tibolone may be an alternative in postmenopausal women, who do not want any uterine bleedings after menopause. However, spottings or bleedings most often occur at the beginning of treatment. Vaginal administration of estriol and estradiol for urogenital symptoms of estrogen deficiency may stimulate the endometrium unintentionally. Available data suggest that use of oral estriol may be associated with endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma relatively more often compared to sequential HRT. Raloxifene, a benzothiophene derivative acting as a selective estrogen receptor modulator approved for prevention of vertebral osteoporosis, rarely causes uterine bleeding. There is no ideal therapy available to suit women looking for a permanently bleed-free hormonal replacement therapy today.
