Abstract: Menopause increases the risk of cardiovascular disease in postmenopausal women.Menopause hormone therapy can not only effectively relieve symptoms such as menopause vasomotor，but also improve the intermediate indicators of cardiovascular disease development，so as to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease in perimenopausal women.A number of clinical studies have shown that the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular diseases have decreased for healthy women who start hormone therapy in perimenopausal period within 10 years after menopause and below 60 years old.At present，there is still a lack of conclusive evidence that MHT can improve the diagnosed heart disease.Therefore，MHT is not recommended for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease，nor is it for secondary prevention of coronary heart disease.

Key words: menopause hormone therapy, cardiovascular disease, menopause
