Talk:hormone replacement therapy

hormone replacement therapy
to me this seems entirely guessable from its components -- Liliana • 23:20, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep as a set phrase. Isn't it specific to particular hormones and a particular set of patients also.--Dmol 23:39, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought the same, but surprisingly, no, it is not specific at all. It can refer to all hormones and all sorts of patients! -- Liliana • 23:52, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * If there is sufficient usage to indicate this specific meaning, I think it should be kept and the definition changed to match, even if this is not the "official" sense of the term.--Dmol 17:44, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete if this is correct. Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV 14:33, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep medical term for a disease reeks of a proper nounLucifer 10:37, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
 * It's not a disease, it's a cure. Of what does it reek now? --Hekaheka 19:21, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Unsure. My relative gets insulin multiple times a day because she doesn't produce it herself. I've never heard anyone say she's on (or getting) hormone replacement therapy. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 17:36, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Well the current definition says "A therapy that replaces hormones". Maybe we need to roll some dice at Google Books and get a few quotations to clear up the meaning? -- Liliana • 15:21, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
