Over the last couple of decades, the conversation surrounding hormone replacement therapy and menopause has been confusing. Does it work? Is it safe? What about alternative therapies? it’s hard to sort out conflicting information coming from various sources. In this episode we discuss:

• The recent history of hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
• HRT for symptom relief
• HRT, endometrial hyperplasia, and uterine cancer
• HRT and cardiovascular disease
• HRT and breast cancer
• Bioidentical hormones
• And more.
