Hormone therapy and airway sensitivity in women
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how starting female sex hormones (like those used in HRT or birth control) affects the airways' sensitivity. It may help understand if starting these hormones has any effect on breathing or asthma-like symptoms.
