"Female sex hormones have been hypothesized to influence the higher prevalence of gastroparesis in females. This study investigated the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on gastroparesis and its related symptoms, medication use, and diagnostic testing in post-menopausal women…Our study revealed that prescriptions for hormone replacement therapy were associated with an increased risk of developing an ICD encounter diagnosis of gastroparesis in post-menopausal women. The longer post-menopausal women had been prescribed HRT, the more their risk of developing gastroparesis increased…We found that the post-menopausal women prescribed HRT were statistically significant associated with an increased risk of the development of early satiety, abdominal distention, epigastric pain, generalized abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, and constipation. These findings support the notion that HRT is associated with delayed gastric emptying, contributing to these GI symptoms…In summary, our study demonstrated that HRT being prescribed in post-menopausal women is associated with an increased risk of developing an ICD encounter diagnosis of gastroparesis over time. Additionally, we found a significant association between HRT and elevated gastrointestinal side effects, medication use, and a higher likelihood of undergoing diagnostic tests and procedures compared to post-menopausal women not prescribed HRT. This study highlights the potential impact of estrogen and progesterone supplementation in HRT on gastrointestinal motility. Further investigation is warranted to elucidate the long-term effects of HRT on the gastrointestinal tract."www.mdpi.com/2698320#Gastroparesis #CureGP
