This short version of the interdisciplinary S3 guideline on hormone therapy in peri- and postmenopause (HT) is intended as a decision-making instrument for physicians and women considering HT. It is designed to assist daily practice. This short version summarises the long version that contains detailed information about the development of the guideline, particularly about establishing the evidence levels. The statements and recommendations, quoted completely, are marked with the relevant levels of evidence (LoE) and grades of recommendation. The classification system from the Centre for Evidence-based Medicine in Oxford was used in this guideline (see “Attachment”).
