Hormones aren’t optional—they’re central to survival, especially for women postmenopause. 🌸
A study of older women undergoing hip fracture surgery found that higher estradiol and progesterone levels were linked to significantly better survival, independent of age, blood pressure, diabetes, or other health conditions. It wasn’t bone density—it was hormone levels that made the difference.
S*x hormones play a critical role in reducing inflammation, supporting recovery, and improving resilience during acute stress. Understanding and supporting hormonal balance isn’t about vanity—it’s about foundational health and longevity. 💛
