摘要：OBJECTIVES: This study estimated the prevalence of and the factors associated with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) counseling. METHODS: We analyzed the responses of 3170 women, aged 40 to 60 years, from the 1994 National Health Interview Survey. RESULTS: The prevalence of HRT counseling was 43.6%. Women were more likely to report having received HRT counseling if they were White, older, more educated, had had a hysterectomy, had experienced menopausal symptoms, and had a regular source of care. CONCLUSIONS: More attention should be directed at counseling non-White women and women with less formal education. Reducing the barriers to having a regular source of care appears to increase the likelihood of receiving HRT counseling.
