Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how your body uses energy (calories) at rest during the early weeks of starting hormone replacement therapy (HRT). It will help researchers understand if HRT changes your resting metabolism, which might be helpful for weight management after menopause.
