[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m seeing a lot of studies that indicate it’s better to start it relatively early or not at all: https://www.cnn.com/2023/04/03/health/alzheimers-hormone-replacement-therapy-wellness/index.html Once those hormone receptors shut off after menopause, it can be really damaging. [/quote] This study though includes a lot of caveats, such as: “What we found is women who have early menopause or have a very late use of hormone therapy might be at higher risk, but only if they were already on the Alzheimer’s disease continuum, with elevated levels of amyloid,” she said. “Women with very low levels of amyloid and early menopause did not have such an association.” And unfortunately there's been fraud and fabrication in Alzheimer's research, in one case a widely-accepted study has greatly misdirected Alzheimer's research for years: https://www.science.org/content/article/potential-fabrication-research-images-threatens-key-theory-alzheimers-disease[/quote]
