===Class III===
 
1. [[Hormone therapy]] with [[estrogen]] plus [[progestin]], or [[estrogen]] alone, should not be given de novo to postmenopausal women after [[UA]] / [[NSTEMI]] for secondary prevention of coronary events. (Level of Evidence: A)
 
2. Postmenopausal women who are already taking [[estrogen]] plus [[progestin]], or [[estrogen]] alone, at the time of [[UA]] / [[NSTEMI]] in general should not continue [[hormone therapy]]. However, women who are more than 1 to 2 years past the initiation of [[hormone therapy]] who wish to continue such therapy for another compelling indication should weigh the risks and benefits, recognizing the greater risk of cardiovascular events and [[breast cancer]] (combination therapy) or [[stroke]] ([[estrogen]]). [[Hormone therapy]] should not be continued while patients are on bed rest in the hospital. (Level of Evidence: B)}}
