Effect of long term estrogen replacement on post menopausal  mood disturbances is curative but specifical studies has not done on the effects of vaginal hormonal therapy in mood disturbances in menopause. The aim of this study was objectives to clarify the effect extended by Hormon Replacement Therapy (HRT) in improving post menopausal mood disturbances."n"n Methods: In a single blinded clinical trial, the effects of a four months application of vaginal esterogen (premarin) versus placebo (n=20) in each groups were evaluated on mood status and sexual satisfaction, using the Hamilton depression score (HDS score), and self assessment of sexual function and pleasure. Four months after treatment completion (half applicator of nightly vaginal premarin or lubricant vaginally) collected and analyzed with Statistical tests."n"n Results: Decline of the mean HDS scores (depression score) was observed in the premarin group. The mean HDS score (depression) after vaginal premarin decreased from (14.6±4.7) to (3.4±2.3). (p≤0.001) also, The HDS score in placebo group increased from (10.6±3.1) to (11±3.3), that significant difference between two groups before and after treatment is seen. (p≤0.01). Vaginal premarin induced a greater improvement of HDS score (p≤0.006). Mean anxiety score decreased after vaginal premarin (p≤0.000), but is not significant difference in placebo group. (p=0.08). Sexual Satisfaction in Vaginal premarin group is significantly higher (p≤0.001)."n"n Conclusions: Vaginal Estrogene directly or indirectly improved menopausal related mood and sleep disturbances, increased and sexual satisfaction.
