Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of 6 months oh HRT on total anti-oxidant capacity, clinical, endocrine and metabolic features in women affected by hypotalamic amenorrhea. The study group included 20 patients treated with 1 mg of transdermal estradiol daily and 10mg of oral Medroxyprogesterone acetate from 16th to 24th day of therapy for six months. Menstrual pattern, anthropometric parameters, hormonal assays, DXA and bone metabolism parameters are evaluated before and after therapy.
