Could estrogen play a role in diverticulitis risk as women age?

As estrogen levels naturally decrease during perimenopause and postmenopause, researchers are exploring how those hormonal changes may affect digestive health. At the same time, some research has found a potential connection between hormone replacement therapy and diverticular disease.

But there is still a lot we don't know, including how different types, doses, and routes of hormone therapy may affect individual risk.

The takeaway? Don't make decisions about HRT based on one study or one symptom. Talk with your healthcare provider about your individual health history, symptoms, risks, and treatment options.
