Estrogen REALLY Matters!
GUEST: AVRUM BLUMING MD and CAROL TAVRIS PHD
We’re diving head first into a necessary and energetic discussion about a topic that has stirred the medical world: hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT is both a medical and feminist issue and we’re creating a call to action for all women to educate ourselves in order to advocate for ourselves.
As with many of the experts we’ve connected with in our menopause community, Avrum Bluming and Carol Tavris didn’t set out to be activists. These leaders were compelled by the shift in culture around treating women with symptoms of perimenopause as a result of the groundbreaking research done by the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI). Overnight the perception of HRT transformed dramatically, and stopped being prescribed.
Bluming and Tavris are joining us to address the exaggerated claims made by the Women's Health Initiative and shed light on the overlooked benefits of HRT, all while ensuring that the spectre of breast cancer risk remains low. Tune in, engage with our passionate experts, and together, let’s explore the true story of HRT. It’s going to be as juicy as it is scientific!
