Aim: The purpose of this paper was to estimate the effectiveness of the use of acetate nomegestrol in relation to indicator hematochemical parameters and bone mineral density (BMD) regarding patients in physiological menopause treated with hormone replacement therapy (HRT), compared to patients in surgical menopause treated with HRT by only administering transdermally hemi hydrate estradiol (estrogen replacement therapy, ERT).

Methods: Sixty women in menopause for at least 6 months ago, aged between 40 and 55 years, were recruited. Thirty of them were given HRT with acetate nomegestrol, and 30 were given only ERT, because they were subjected to general hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy.
