Abstract
Aim:
To examine postmenopausal women free of organic cardiovascular lesions receiving replacement hormonotherapy (RHT) for ECG abnormalities, control of the detected cardiovascular defects.
Materials and methods:
ECG was conducted in 61 postmenopausal women before and during RHT with climen and climonorm.
Results:
ECG registers frequent functional abnormalities in postmenopausal women. A 3-month RHT improved the patients' condition. ECG parameters improved on RHT month 9.
Conclusion:
RHT of postmenopausal women corrects general condition of such patients as well as functional ECG parameters.
