Abstrakt: The effect on blood pressure of oral ‘replacement’ doses of exogenous oestrogen may depend on the type and dose of oestrogen administered. This study was designed to compare with placebo the effect of once daily treatment with a ‘natural’ oestrogen, piperazine oestrone sulphate, in two different doses and a semisynthetic oestrogen, ethinyloestradiol, on clinic and ambulatory blood pressure and the renin–angiotensin system in postmenopausal women.
