La indicación de la terapia de reemplazo hormonal (TH) dio la impresión de ser la solución para contrarrestar los efectos del climaterio femenino y mantener a la mujer ‘joven por siempre’. La publicación del estudio Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) mostró efectos negativos de una TH particular en mujeres mayores. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar el impacto de la TH, evaluando los beneficios en comparación con los riesgos, y trata de establecer cuándo se justifica el manejo clínico de la mujer climatérica.Sociedad Peruana de Obstetricia y Ginecología2015-06-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://51.222.106.123/index.php/RPGO/article/view/1097The Peruvian Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics ; Vol. 54 No. 2 (2008); 108-116Revista Peruana de Ginecología y Obstetricia; Vol. 54 Núm. 2 (2008); 108-1162304-51322304-5124reponame:Revista Peruana de Ginecología y Obstetriciainstname:Sociedad Peruana de Obstetricia y Ginecologíainstacron:SPOGspahttp://51.222.106.123/index.php/RPGO/article/view/1097/pdf_117info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/10972015-08-07T15:05:59Z
