The finding differs from results reported in the Heart and Estrogen/Progestin Replacement Study.
T. Alper and colleagues in Turkey compared "the effects of oral conjugated estrogen (CEE) alone, CEE plus medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), and tibolone on lipid profiles, and [investigated] whether these effects change in time."
To do this, they looked at plasma lipid levels in the women on CEE (n=49), CEE + MPA (n=50), and tibolone (n=51). "Mean percent changes at certain intervals were compared with their previous intervals for each therapy. Paired t-test was used for statistical analysis," the researchers said.
They found that "CEE alone had raised high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and triglyceride levels and lowered total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels at the end of the 2-year study period.
"Addition of MPA to the CEE regimen weakened the effect on HDL and triglyceride, augmented the decrease in total cholesterol, and did not affect LDL," they reported.
