| Video Discription | Estrogen is a neuroprotective agent and the estrogen protection hypothesis is implicated in the development of schizophrenia in women. In women estrogen delays the onset of schizophrenia. In the peri-menopausal period, fading estrogen secretion in vulnerable women can increase the risk of schizophrenia. The ADEPT trial showed that the addition of transdermal estrogen (100 or 200 mcg) to antipsychotic therapy improved symptoms of schizophrenia. Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM's) such as Raloxifene exerts similar neurotransmitter effects to estradiol within the brain, while acting primarily as an estrogen antagonist in breast tissue and the endometrium. In women with refractory schizophrenia, raloxifene is a promising, well-tolerated agent that has potential application in clinical practice. Thus, schizophrenia in women has a strong hormonal basis and should be taken into account in clinical practice.
