What if I would like to participate in a HT clinical trial?

In Get Involved In Research: Why Get Involved In Research Studies? the (Australian) Jean Hailes for Women’s Health elaborate on:

“Choosing to join a study is a personal decision. Before you join a study, learn about what you will be asked to do and how much time this might take. Also ask about possible risks and benefits. Researchers can provide you with a ‘plain language explanation’ of the study which will help you with your decision”.5
