Hormone replacement therapy increases sexual desire in postmenopausal women.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
5 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that hormone replacement therapy increases sexual desire in postmenopausal women?

Unclear. Several sources indicate that testosterone-based therapy improves sexual desire in postmenopausal women with low desire, and one cohort associates HRT use with lower sexual dysfunction risk. However, the evidence addresses testosterone replacement or a subset of HRT rather than hormone replacement therapy generally, so it only partially supports the claim.
