This is a complicated issue depending on what age you start, what type of HRT you use (only estrogen or both hormones, bioidentical versus Prempro) delivered to your body in what form (patch or pill), your BMI, and how long you choose to be on HRT.

This recent study tried to analyze these various factors.   Read it very carefully to understand all of the ins and outs of this issue.   I have chosen to use the Vivelle estrogen-only patch for the past few years and LOVE it!   This recent research did not change my mind.   I plan to use it a year or two more and then quit.
