Description



























This Episode takes you through nearly two decades of research and science behind the use of hormone therapy. You will learn more about the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI), including long term follow up data from this study, along with more recent studies to help you feel confident that using hormone therapy is safe and effective. You will also learn about the  “timing hypothesis”, or the science behind why hormone therapy is even better when used within ten years of menopause.
