-- [ From: Donna Kipp * EMC.Ver #2.10P ] -- Confused about HRT not as much as I. I have decided to try it again after the holidays after much consideration. I recently read the there appears that HRT helps to slow down the progression of Alzhiemers. The scientists feel that estrogen may afford a level of protection. After doing a mother -in-law survey and observing that younger women with PD seem to do better then younger men with PD. I called my neuro and asked him his opinion and agreed that women do seem to do better then men and cautiously agreed that it is possible that Estrogen may be a factor. I realize that this is a long shot and that I will have to increase my Sinemet dosage upward but have decided to do it. ...... Donna
