As a hair-dye ad once teased, only her hairdresser knows for sure. When it comes to the question of whether chimpanzees go through menopause, no researchers seem to know for sure--and there's no equivalent of a hairdresser to turn to for the definitive answer. Now the most comprehensive study ever of reproduction in wild female chimpanzees has added important insights that both move closer to an answer and add more puzzling questions.

"Women who initiated hormone therapy closer to menopause tended to have reduced CHD risk compared with the increase in CHD risk among women more distant from menopause, but this trend test did not meet our criterion for statistical significance.

These data should be considered in regard to the short-term treatment of menopausal symptoms. "
