3 Myths of Hormone Replacement Therapy: Truth or Dare!
Most women have been misled about hormone therapy. This episode sets the record straight on what’s true, what’s outdated, and what your hot flashes are really telling you.
Dr. Regina Druz is joined by hormone expert Dr. Lorraine Maita for a conversation that challenges long-held beliefs about hormones, bioidentical hormones, and the risks often associated with them. Together, they revisit the Women’s Health Initiative study and explain why its conclusions may no longer apply to today’s treatments or today’s patients.
What do hot flashes reveal about your heart? Are hormones and breast cancer always linked? And why does the timing and type of hormone therapy matter more than most people realize?
If you’re questioning what you’ve heard about hormones and the heart, or whether bioidentical hormones are actually safe, this episode brings clarity, context, and a smarter way to think about hormone health.
