Hormone therapy may protect a woman's aging brain, but timing is critical.
Experts agree the "window of opportunity" for HRT is typically in the late 40s or early 50s.
"Early intervention promotes and sustains brain health," neuroscientist Roberta Brinton said.
Get in there early. That seems to be the growing consensus around hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women.
New study data suggests that middle-aged women could use these treatments to protect their brains, contradicting old concerns about a potential dementia risk.

A US airman who was arrested twice, once on the steps of the US Capitol while calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, was officially criminally charged Monday for his comments, according to a charging document his attorney shared with CNN.
Maj. Jason Watson faces the following charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, according to the document: three violations of Article 88 for alleged "contemptuous" remarks about Trump, five violations of Article 92 for allegedly disobeying orders and two violations of Article 133 for alleged conduct unbecoming an officer.
The rare Article 88 charges are connected to the Air Force officer's June interview with the Defenders of our Republic Substack newsletter, his July 1 protest in uniform at the US Capitol, and an August 17 CNN interview.
It can be considered a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice to participate in uniform in any overtly partisan activity, such as a political protest, or to use "contemptuous words" against the president and other high-ranking civilian officials. Many low-level offenses of these rules are resolved informally, but Watson's violations were unusually high-profile.
Watson was first arrested in July while protesting in uniform at the US Capitol, and he was then arrested again last week just days after criticizing Trump again during a CNN interview. One of his attorneys, Chris Mutimer, told CNN that his client was ordered to remain in "pre-trial confinement" — an action ******* ogous to a denial of bond in civilian court — pending legal action against him.
