Overview
Within the context of the proposed research study, the effect of soy isoflavonoid supplements on the quality of life and coagulation of menopausal women. It has been observed that menopause, as a physiological process, is associated with alterations in the physical, mental and sexual quality of life, making the use of hormone replacement therapy necessary; however, hormone therapy is associated with hypercoagulability, since it has been seen that women have higher levels of thrombogenic microvesicles such as: platelets with a greater probability of causing blood clotting were more likely to present a greater amount of white matter hyperintensities, which appear in the MRI scan.
Description
The following study is aimed at clarifying the effects of soy isoflavonate supplements on the quality of life and markers of hypercoagulability in menopausal women. The reasons for conducting this research arise from the concern of minimizing side effects such as hypercoagulation caused by hormone replacement therapy, which is intended to be replaced with soy isoflavonates to evaluate its efficacy.
