💥 A Historic Day for Women’s Health
Today marks a turning point. The FDA has finally agreed to remove the outdated black box warnings linking estrogen therapy to breast cancer, heart disease, and dementia.
This is huge. For decades, fear and misinformation kept millions of women from safe, effective treatment. But the data has always told a different story—when used correctly, estrogen therapy protects brain, bone, and heart health.

Massive respect to the leaders who helped make this happen—Dr. Laura Jackson, Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Rachel Rubin, and Dr. Kelly Casperson—for bringing truth, science, and compassion to the FDA. And a sincere thank-you to Dr. Makary and all who have worked behind the scenes to move women’s health forward.

This is what progress looks like.

Science evolves—thankfully.
We once said “don’t eat eggs” … then “okay, just egg whites” … now “eggs are fine.”
Same with estrogen. We used to fear it—now we know it protects heart, brain & bones.
Learning is progress.

😂 Look Better, Live Longer… or at least survive perimenopause without drop-kicking someone.

Even South Park gets it: perimenopause is no joke. Mood swings, hot flashes, insomnia, brain fog—it’s real, it’s disruptive, and it often hits way before anyone expects it.

If you’re feeling like a hormonal chaos gremlin, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. You’re in perimenopause. And yes, there’s help.

👏 Bonus points to South Park for making it funny—but let’s make sure it’s also taken seriously.

When the Women’s Health Initiative came out, HRT prescriptions plummeted. The result? Millions of women lost access to safe, effective hormone therapy—and instead were given prescriptions for other drugs that often carried more risks and fewer benefits.

Why make it so complicated? Menopause isn’t caused by a Prozac deficiency or a sleeping pill deficiency. It’s about hormone loss.

The simple truth: replacing what the body is missing works. Safely. Effectively. And with benefits far beyond hot flash relief.

It’s time to rethink women’s health and return to evidence-based care.

💥 Look Better, Live Longer!
You won’t believe how different identical twins can look after decades of different lifestyle choices and exposures. In one rare study, researchers took the genetic variable out of the equation by comparing identical twins—same DNA, totally different aging results.

The biggest aging culprits?
☀️ Sun exposure
🚬 Smoking
⚖️ Being underweight
…and one most people never consider: hormone depletion.

Here’s the jaw-dropper—one twin used hormone replacement for 22 years. She looked more than 7 years younger than her sister.
People don’t usually think of hormone therapy as a skin treatment, but it’s a game-changer for skin thickness, turgor, and wrinkle prevention.
These photos say it all.

Wondering if you’re too old for Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)? The answer might surprise you!

Dr Shauna Watts, Dr Vonda Wright, and Dr Kelly Casperson debunk myths around HRT and share the facts about how it can benefit women at every stage of midlife.

If you’ve been questioning whether it’s too late to start, this is for you.

We have to stop treating women as if they are only breasts.

Women are whole people—with brains, hearts, bones, and hormones that all deserve attention in every health decision we make.

👏 Credit to Dr. Noor for saying it perfectly: care for women must look at the entire body, not just one part.

When it comes to menopause, perimenopause, and hormone therapy, the goal isn’t just to ease symptoms—it’s to protect long-term health: preventing osteoporosis, heart disease, dementia, and more.

Whole-body care. Whole-body health. Because women deserve nothing less.

Perimenopause isn’t some distant “someday thing”—for many women, it starts sooner than you think.

Menopause is just one day. The real changes? They start in the years leading up to it—what we call perimenopause.

That’s when you may notice hot flashes, brain fog, mood swings, poor sleep, or even increased risk of heart disease and dementia—and yes, these changes can start as early as your mid-30s.

If your body feels different and you’re wondering what’s going on—you’re not alone (and you’re not imagining it).

Let’s talk about what’s happening, why it matters, and what you can do to feel like you again.

Thursday was a milestone—and not just for menopause care, but for modern medicine.

Experts from all over the country showed up at the FDA to say what many of us in the field have known for years: it’s time to end the fear campaign around HRT.

We’re not talking about fringe treatments. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are essential tools for managing menopause and preventing real, devastating health conditions—like osteoporosis, dementia, and heart disease.

But because of outdated black box warnings and misplaced fear, millions of women have been denied the care they need to stay healthy, strong, and thriving.

Menopause isn’t a taboo. It’s a medical reality—and it’s time we treat it that way.

Let’s follow the data. Let’s support women. Let’s do better.

Let’s talk about something that should never have become controversial: low-dose vaginal estrogen.

For decades, we’ve had solid evidence showing it’s one of the safest and most effective tools we have for treating genitourinary symptoms of menopause—like dryness, painful s*x, and recurrent UTIs. But thanks to an outdated black box warning, many doctors hesitate to prescribe it, and countless women suffer unnecessarily.

At Thursdays FDA hearing, Dr. Rachel Rubin delivered a bold, evidence-backed message: this warning is doing more harm than good.

Every year, millions of women end up in the ER for preventable UTIs. We're talking billions in avoidable healthcare costs—and even more importantly, years of avoidable pain, fear, and frustration.

It’s time to drop the fearmongering and let the data lead. Removing this label could drastically reduce infections, protect long-term health, and give women back control over their bodies.

The science is on our side. The question is—will the FDA finally listen?
