Brief Summary

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

The incidence of CVD-related deaths is generally higher in women than men. Postmenopausal changes in estrogen/androgen ratio that induce a relative androgen excess have been proposed as important factors in the higher prevalence of hypertension. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that testosterone has potential role between hypertension and target organ damage in postmenopausal hypertensive women. And the objective is to evaluate the effects of testosterone between hypertension and target organ damage in postmenopausal hypertensive women.
