Oral oestradiol/trimegestone replacement reduces procarboxypeptidase U (TAFI): a randomized, placebo‐ controlled, 12‐week study in early postmenopausal women

Abstract

Short-term treatment with E2 + T, but not E2 alone or E2 + D, lowers proCPU concentration. These findings add to accumulating evidence suggesting that different progestagens added to oestrogen replacement may differentially affect the risk of arterial and venous disease.
