This is dangerous.
What was crazy is those people who were prescribing hormone therapy were looking around saying, I don't understand.
My patients aren't dying of heart disease.
They're not getting extra breast cancers.
Like, this doesn't make any sense.
And when people actually looked at the study, it didn't say any of those things.
It was wild how misinterpreted this study was.
In fact, the same study
authors of this study back in the early 2000s published this year in 2025, actually, that below age 70, that type of hormone therapy, which we don't really use anymore, has no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or stroke.
And yet now you have a generation of doctors who weren't taught how to do this.
Only 1.7% of women are getting prescriptions for hormone therapy who should be offered prescriptions.
So it is a disaster.
Only 1.7%.
Wow.
And so hormone therapy is not something that I'm saying every woman must have, but every woman should have access to the toolbox.
I like to think about hormone therapy as really four buckets that we talk about.
Hormone therapy is whole body estrogen, which helps with hot flashes, night sweats, bone loss.
progesterone, whole body progesterone therapy, which protects the uterus and is this yin-yang, especially if you have a uterus, but it helps with sleep and it can help with anxiety reduction in many of our patients.
Not everybody, but a lot of them.
The third thing is testosterone, which we talked about, which can help with libido.
