Hormone therapy may protect a woman's aging brain, but timing is critical.

"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.
