Summary

This study will evaluate whether there is a difference in the proportion of women who report a worsening severity of their hot flashes between three tapering schedules for one accepted HT/ET regimen. Secondarily, we hope to evaluate whether there is a difference in the frequency (number of occurrences per week), severity (defined as a subjective scale mild, moderate, or severe), and "Severity Index" (SI, equaling the product of both) of hot flashes between three tapering schedules for one accepted HT/ET regimen.
