These observations were fairly consistent across all women without uterine fibroids. Endometrial thickness was significantly positively associated with body mass index (P = 0.049) after adjusting for time and menopausal stage. CONCLUSIONS The figures for uterine volume and endometrial thickness decrease around menopause using ultrasound measurments with large reductions in the first and second year after the final menstrual period. A higher body mass index is associated with increased endometrial thickness.OBJECTIVES The Women's Health Initiative (WHI) randomized trial identified age differences in the benefit-risk profile of estrogen-alone (ET) use. The impact of WHI trial on disease-associated medical expenditures attributable to subsequent decreased ET utilization has, however, not been measured. Therefore, the objective of this analysis was to quantify the age-specific disease-associated medical expenditures attributable to reduced ET utilization after the WHI Hormone Therapy (HT) trials. METHODS Population-level disease counts and associated expenditures between 2003 and 2015 were compared between an observed ET-user population versus a hypothetical ET-user population assuming absence of the WHI HT trials, constructed by extrapolating ET utilization rates from 1996 to 2002 assuming pre-WHI HT rates would have continued without publication of the WHI HT trial data (2002-2004). Analyses were stratified by age (50-59, 60-69, and 70-79 years). Input data were extracted from Medical Expenditure Panel Survey and the literature. The primary outcomes were ET utilization, chronic diseases (breast cancer, stroke, coronary heart disease, colorectal cancer, pulmonary embolism, and hip fracture) and disease-associated direct medical expenditures. RESULTS Over 13 years, the decline in ET utilization was associated with $4.1
