Does postmenopausal hormone therapy cause continuation of menses?

This is a really complicated question; having a light period is the least of concerns when considering HRT. Check out Webmd: http://www.webmd.com/menopause/features/HRT-revisiting-the-hormone-decision?page=3

And then talk to your OB. about you specifically and history of health issues in family. Personally I wouldn’t touch any kind of HRT w. a 10 foot tampex. Kleenex and a portable hand fan worked just fine. Also I found thatdancing around in the snow in underwear was cooling,

My question was a bit less personal and more academic in nature (since I am a 26 yo male), but thanks for the response, in any case. This answer actually contradicts the answer I received from my friend in med school.

Was he male also? What year med school? You’re better off talking to your ma’s older woman friends or your grandmother’s younger ones.
