✨ Big news from the FDA! ✨
The black box warning has been removed from estrogen products — a major step forward for women’s health.
We’ve come a long way since the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI). We now understand that, for many women who start estrogen close to the time of menopause, there is no increased risk of cardiovascular disease, dementia, or breast cancer.
Today’s hormone therapy uses different formulations and routes than what was studied in the WHI. While this label change doesn’t come with new data, it does mean that women will no longer receive overly broad warnings that may not apply to them.
As always, it’s important to have open, individualized conversations with your practitioner about the benefits, risks, and side effects of hormone therapy.
When women have accurate information, they make informed and empowered choices. 💪💗

✨ Big News from the FDA ✨
Today, the FDA announced the removal of the long-standing black box warning from most estrogen-containing hormone therapy products used for menopause.
This change reflects years of updated research showing that, when started around the time of menopause, hormone therapy can be both safe and beneficial for many women., especially when started close to the time of menopause. ❤️
The original warning—based on older studies in women well past menopause—led many to avoid treatment that could have improved quality of life, bone health, and even metabolic wellness.
While hormone therapy isn’t right for everyone, this update means women and their clinicians can have more informed, individualized conversations about what’s best for each person.
💬 If you’ve been curious about hormone therapy or had concerns in the past, now’s a great time to revisit the discussion with your healthcare provider.

10 things I learned at the Menopause Society Conference
1.        6,000 women experience menopause every day.  1.3 million women per year. 
2.        Symptoms of perimenopause can start before menstrual cycles become irregular
3.        Physical activity lowers the risk of hot flashes and night sweats- one more reason to exercise
4.        Even benign breast lesions can slightly increase the risk of breast cancer
5.        Treating hot flashes may help decrease the cognitive effects of menopause.
6.        Women live longer than men but have shorter healthspans.  Women live up to 25% longer but will spend more years in poor health. 
7.        Lack of sleep (even mild lack of sleep) increases the risk of insulin resistance.
8.        Oral estrogen is better than transdermal at affecting body composition.
9.        For women using oral contraceptives (OCP) for premature ovarian insufficiency, continuous OCP is better than 3 weeks on, one week off.  This protects bone better. 
10.  We have in the past recommended supplemental breast imaging for women with extremely dense breasts at high risk for developing breast cancer.  The new recommendations say we can consider supplemental breast imaging in women with heterogeneously dense breasts (less than extremely dense).  MRI and contrast enhanced mammography are better than breast ultrasound.  MRI can miss DCIS.

A new nonhormonal treatment option for hot flashes and night sweats was approved by the FDA yesterday- AND it has been studied in breast cancer survivors. Lynkuet(elinzanentant). 🤩🤩🤩

This study showed that women who used tirzepatide plus hormone therapy lost more weight than those on tirzepatide alone. This is an association not causation but interesting and warrants more research. Similar results were found with Semaglutide.

🌸 World Menopause Day 🌸
Today, I want to remind you that menopause isn’t an ending — it’s an evolution.
For too long, women have been told to just deal with it — the hot flashes, the sleep struggles, the mood changes, the body shifts. But you deserve more than that. You deserve informed care, compassionate support, and a plan that helps you thrive in this stage of life.
As a Menopause Society Certified Physician, I’m passionate about helping women navigate this transition with confidence, knowledge, and personalized care. Menopause is a natural part of life — but it shouldn’t mean feeling less like yourself. With the right approach to hormones, nutrition, movement, and mindset, midlife can truly be your most vibrant chapter yet. 💫
If you feel like you aren’t getting what you need from your current doctor, it’s time for a change. Schedule an appointment with me at Evora Women’s Health today — and let’s get you feeling like yourself again. 💛

So many women in perimenopause and menopause tell me how frustrated they feel — that their bodies have changed, that they miss the way they looked or felt at 20, or wish they could get back to their “high school weight.”
But here’s the truth: we don’t need to become who we once were.
Our bodies have carried us through decades of living — of laughter, love, heartbreak, resilience, and growth. That’s not something to mourn… it’s something to honor.
✨ Aging is a luxury that not everyone gets.
✨ We deserve self-love and compassion right now — not only when we reach some ideal version of ourselves.
Let’s celebrate the strength, wisdom, and beauty that come with age.
Let’s trade comparison for gratitude, and self-criticism for kindness.
Here’s to loving ourselves — right where we are. 💖
