3 FIGURE 2 The effect of α-tocopherol (vitamin E), 400 IU/day, and hormone therapy on serum α-tocopherol (AT) levels. Placebo (AT alone), CEE (conjugated equine estrogens – Premarin mg) and CEE + MPA (conjugated equine estrogens and medroxyprogesterone acetate – PREMPRO, 0.625/2.5 mg.) All groups received AT from week 0 to week 4. From week 4 to week 12 they received either AT with or without CEE or CEE +MPA. Values represent mean ± standard deviation. †P<.001 compared with baseline (week 0). *P<.05. **P<.01, week 4 versus week 12. Carr. Vitamin E and HT on cardiovascular markers. Fertil Steril 2006.
