Mechanical implications of estrogen supplementation in early postmenopausal women.

In control subjects, the data further revealed substantial and highly significant reductions in axial stiffness (3.9% and 4.0%, p = .0004 and .001 at 12 and 24 months, respectively) at the tibia and 3.6% and 3.7% ( p = .002 and .03) at the radius at the two time points.

For the distal radius ( Tables 3 and 4 ), the temporal changes in mean values of subregional mechanical parameters did not reach statistical significance except for E 22 (at 12 months) and G 23 (at 24 months) for the estradiol group, for which 6.1% ± 2.2% ( p = .02) and 3.8% ± 1.5% ( p = .04) increases were observed, respectively.

At the radius, axial stiffness increased 2.5% ( p = .02) at 12 months and 3.2% at 24 months, but the latter effect did not quite reach significance ( p = .065).
