Study links early menopause, HRT to rheumatoid arthritis risk
Beijing, Jan 10 (IANS) Early menopause — before the age of 45, taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and having 4 or more children are among several hormonal and reproductive factors linked to a heightened risk of rheumatoid arthritis in women, finds a long term study. Women are more susceptible to this autoimmune disease than men, said the researchers from Anhui Medical University in China. They are 4-5 times as likely as men to develop rheumatoid arthritis under the age of 50, and twice as likely to do so between the ages of 60 and 70. And the disease seems to take a greater physical toll on women than it does on men, revealed the study published in the open access journal RMD Open.
