Estrogen therapy and cognition: a 6-year single-blind follow-up study in postmenopausal women.

The authors evaluated the effect of long-term hormone therapy (HT) on cognition in 60 postmenopausal women (aged 53 to 72 years) in a single-blind, 6-year follow-up study. The subjects were divided into three groups: non-HT users, continuous HT users, and irregular HT users. Measures of verbal and visuomotor skills, verbal and visual memory, and attention were used. All women had well-maintained cognitive performance. Long-term HT did not affect cognition, either for better or for worse.
