An investigational combination of 17beta-estradiol and progesterone appears to be safe and effective for reducing hot flash frequency and severity in menopausal women, according to results of the REPLENISH trial.

No cases of endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial cancer were observed among any of the groups. Consensus reads of active and disordered hyperplasia at 12 months were identified in 2.9% of the 1 mg/100 mg group, 1.7% of the 0.5 mg/100 mg group, 0.3% of the 5 mg/50 mg group, 1.1% of the 0.25 mg/50 mg group, and none of the placebo group.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
