This is when women should start HRT to reduce risk of dementia
Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleResearch involving over 183,000 women shows that hormone replacement therapy is associated with a 10 per cent lower risk of dementia and a 16 per cent lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Starting HRT between the ages of 46 and 56 offered the greatest benefit, reducing dementia risk by up to 23 per cent for those starting between 51 and 56. Women who took HRT following surgical menopause experienced a 26 per cent reduction in dementia risk, while those carrying the APOE4 Alzheimer's risk gene saw a 13 per cent reduction. The study suggests HRT may offer targeted protective benefits for women with lower lifetime natural oestrogen exposure due to early menopause or starting periods late. Researchers state the findings support a personalised approach to women's brain health and highlight the potential cognitive benefits of timing HRT during the menopause transition.
