Objective: To study the effects of low-dose and long-term hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on blood lipids in postmenopausal women. Methods: (1) 141 postmenopausal female medical staffs aged from 50 to 87 years with average 68 years were from Peking Union Medical college Hospital, among them 63 were treated with low-dose HRT for 5-31 years as HRT group, and other 78 postmenopausal women matched with age as the control group. (2) withdrew vein blood from objects on fasting for 12-14 h and serum was separated for determining serum concentration of lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein. (3)data were analyzed with SPSS statistical software for statistical significance by P<0. 05. Results:In comparison with control, the levels of TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, apoA Ⅰ, Lp(a) of HRT group had no statistical significance,but the levels of TC, TC/HDL-C, ApoE, ApoC Ⅲand ApoB were significantly lower. Conclusion:The levels of TC, LDL-C, ApoB, ApoC Ⅲ, ApoE decreased significantly in postmenopausal women receiving low-dose and long-term HRT. The decrease in the levels of blood lipids may provide cardiovascular protection and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
