Abstract
Twenty-three cases of the climacteric syndrome were analyzed in a double-blind study comparing the effect of conjugated equine estrogen (Premarin) and medrogestone (Colpro) with clonidine (Dixarit) on various clinical parameters. The treatment lasted 20 wk. Statistical analysis of the results indicated that opposed estrogen therapy was effective in reducing hot flushes (P < 0.05) and clonidine was not. The other variables tested did not attain statistical significance.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
