I wasn't able to find the percentage of women per decade taking
hormone replacement. The best statistic I got is that 45% of women
born from 1897-1950 (which would include the decades in question) have
taken some form of hormone replacement.

The number of women today is anywhere from 20-45%, depending on the
type or combination of hormone.
