Annotation | The International Menopause Forum "Tuohilampi", which meets annually, is a working group with an interdisciplinary scientific composition from five European countries. This fifth meeting held in Essen, Germany was mainly devoted to the problems of depressive mood and depression in women who are pre-, peri- and post-menopausal. Current hormone replacement therapy (HRT) prescription in European postmenopausal women was critically reviewed in a recent study, and the Forum considers that treatment of depressed, especially older women is an unmet medical need. In addition, the role of IGF (insulin-like growth factor) in gynaecology and the use of HRT after gynaecological cancer is reviewed. (KJ/RH). |
