Background: With increasing survival rates after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), it has become important to evaluate methods of improving patients’ quality of life.

We analyzed the effects of hormone therapy (HT) on serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), serum estradiol, and bone mineral density (BMD) in young female HSCT recipients. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 234 female patients who underwent allogenic HSCT between April 2009 and April 2018 at our center. The maximum age at the time of transplantation was 40 years, and patients were followed up for at least 3 years. Of the 734 patients who were initially screened, 360 patients aged
