Hormone Replacement Trial Against ALzheimers' Disease

This trial is studying whether hormone replacement therapy (HRT) around the time of menopause affects Alzheimer's-related proteins in the blood. Researchers will draw blood from postmenopausal women — with and without a history of breast cancer — and measure amyloid breakdown products to better understand the connection between menopause, hormones, and early Alzheimer's biology. This is a Phase NA observational-style study, meaning it is exploratory research, not a test of a treatment.

You may qualify if

  • postmenopausal women
  • 40 - 65 years

You're excluded if

  • Longer than 10 years in menopause
  • thyroid dysfunction
  • hypertension
  • medical history of psychiatric comorbidity
  • Alcohol and/or drug abuse
  • medical history of neurologic symptoms with cognitive symptoms
