The aim of the study was to assess the effect of TAM therapy on the endometrium and the usefulness of Doppler How assessment by TVU. 79 asymptomatic postmenopausal women (pmw) treated with TAM (20 mg/day) for at least 1 year were recruited. 20 healthy pmw served as controls. All patients (pts) underwent TVU to evaluate endometrial thickness (ET) and echotexture, and Doppler color flow was added to the assessments. FT value was increased during the 1st year of therapy

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the effect of TAM therapy on the endometrium and the usefulness of Doppler How assessment by TVU. 79 asymptomatic postmenopausal women (pmw) treated with TAM (20 mg/day) for at least 1 year were recruited. 20 healthy pmw served as controls. All patients (pts) underwent TVU to evaluate endometrial thickness (ET) and echotexture, and Doppler color flow was added to the assessments.
