Health | In recent years, NIA has supported one AD clinical trial on estrogen in the hope that it might be able to provide evidence on whether estrogen actually affects the progression of AD. This trial, which was conducted through the Alzheimer’s Disease Cooperative Study (ADCS) (follow the link for a description of the ADCS), was a pilot study of estrogen replacement therapy (ERT), using a commonly prescribed form of estrogen, in post-menopausal women who had had a hysterectomy and who had mild to moderate AD. Results of this study indicated that ERT did not slow progression of AD or improve cognitive or functional outcomes (Mulnard et al., 2000). Even if given for a full year, estrogen was not helpful for these women. (references) | |
