Dr. Wolfman takes a deep dive into hormone therapy on Aging Powerfully podcast

Dr. Wendy Wolfman sat down with The Social’s Melissa Grelo on her Aging Powerfully podcast to break down a widely misinterpreted research study on hormone therapy (HT) as a treatment for menopause symptoms. She addresses head-on the fears around HT and breast cancer, providing a nuanced, more positive take on the results that could help more women make informed choices on what treatments are right for them.

She answers all the most important questions: what does the data really say? Why are some physicians still skeptical? Who is a good candidate for HT? What can HT do to reduce the symptoms of menopause and does that outweigh any perceived risks?

Dr. Wolfman continues to be one of the most sought-after experts in mature women’s health. Sharing that knowledge with the community is a critical component of the centre’s advocacy initiatives that help women, and their health providers, make the best possible care decisions.
