title: [The future of estrogen substitution in the menopause. Psychological and sociological aspects (author's transl)].
abstract: The future of estrogen substitution (ES) in the menopause was examined in 425 patients in our clinic from the psychological and sociological aspects. Of the women questioned, one fourth would not consider estrogen substitution from the menopause onwards another fourth would only accept this for one year, one quarter for up to six years and the remaining quarter for longer than six years. The reasons for this decision were sought. The positive attitude towards estrogen substitution was seen to depend on age, education level, intelligence, knowledge of sexual hormones, experience with the pill, history of abortion, parity and personality factors.
