HealthDay (11/26, Reinberg) reports that, according to a study published online Nov. 25 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, “low levels of the hormone estrogen are not to blame for mood swings and poor memory after menopause.” Researchers arrived at this conclusion after examining “data on more than 600 postmenopausal women, aged 41 to 84,” none of whom were taking hormone replacement therapy. TheDaily Mail (UK) (11/26) also covers the story.
