   Longer estrogen exposure linked to better brain vessel health in older women

   Women who had a longer reproductive period and had used or are using hormone replacement therapy showed fewer signs of damage to the small blood vessels in the brain later in life. This is shown by a study led by researchers at Karolinska Institutet, published in the journal Neurology.

   Brain Health Linked With Longer Lifetime Estrogen Exposure

   (MedPage Today) -- Women with higher lifetime estrogen exposure had less cerebrovascular pathology, a cohort study in Sweden showed. A longer reproductive span was associated with 8% lower odds of having two or more signs of cerebral small vessel...

   Longer estrogen exposure linked to better brain healthLängre tid med östrogen kopplas till bättre hjärnhälsa

   A longer lifetime period with estrogen may be associated with healthier blood vessels in the brain, a Swedish study finds, though it cannot show hormone therapy prevents disease.En längre period med hormonet östrogen under livet kan ha samband med friskare blodkärl i hjärnan, enligt en ny svensk studie. Studien kan dock inte visa att hormonbehandling förebygger sjukdom. Kvinnor drabbas oftare än män av Alzheimers sjukdom. En möjlig förklaring är förändringar i…

   Estrogen Exposure Shields the Aging Brain

   Does lifetime estrogen protect the brain's microcirculation? A 5-year MRI study in Neurology reveals that a longer reproductive lifespan and hormone therapy use cut cerebral small vessel disease burden by up to 59%, preserving white matter integrity into older age.

   Estrogen Exposure Across the Lifespan Shields the Aging Female Brain from Vascular Damage

   This study investigates the relationship between lifetime estrogen exposure and late life brain health in a cohort of 352 cognitively normal 70 year old women . Researchers analyzed endogenous estrogen, measured by reproductive lifespan, alongside exogenous estrogen from oral contraceptives and…
