Health Care Provider

What if I would like to participate in a HT clinical trial?

If you would like to participate in a HT clinical trial, it may be in your best interest to choose to talk to your health care provider about this.

In Understanding Research: Who Can Participate In Medical Research? the (Australian) Jean Hailes for Women’s Health elaborate on:


Hormone Therapy Clinical Trials“Nearly every woman can qualify to be part of a medical research study at some time. However, each study will have a specific set of criteria for participants.

Observational studies and phase I clinical trials generally include a wide range of participants. If you are currently healthy, but at some risk of developing a disease (perhaps because of your family history), you may qualify for a prevention study. If you have a health condition, you could consider entering a clinical trial to test a treatment”.5
