Dr. Milhouse

It would be like, you will give me my hormones, God damn it.

And I'm not leaving the office until you write me the prescription.

OK, period, point blank.

But and back in the day.

So there's a generation of women who had plethora of hormone therapy and hormone therapy was thought to be like the Holy Grail.

And we in 2000 got like it just got stone cold, like no hormones for women.

Because of a study that was very well designed, the WHI Women's Health Initiative study, very well designed study.

But the results were conclude the the the the conclusions made were made of fear and not off like real logic.

OK, so the conclusions made was like HRT causes cancer.

Whoa.

And HRT might cause heart problems and dementia.

And the reality is that there was...

One arm of women that were randomized to estrogen and progesterone and they had like one, the absolute risk of hormone of breast cancer was like one.

I don't remember the extra percent, but the one percent.

It was very low, very low.

You had the other arm that was randomized to estrogen only.

that had no uterus and the people who got HRT in that group actually had a lower risk of breast cancer.

They don't tell you that.

They don't tell you that.

So it wasn't about the estrogen, it's about the combination.
