Abstract

The effect of natural oestrogens on serum cholesterol and serum triglyceride levels was studied in a controlled double-blind clinical trial. No statistically significant changes were found in the blood lipids when comparing the patients treated with oestradiol, 2 mg, and oestriol, 1 mg, and those given placebo.
