Honored to testify before the Philly City Council today about new legislation to prohibit menopause discrimination! Grateful for the leadership of @ninaahmadphl.bsky.social and the commitment of her colleagues on the Public Health Committee to normalizing menstruation + peri/menopause

HHS boys & doctor-influencers: "All the attention on menopause, though, has elevated a new cadre of doctor-influencers, two of whom were featured speakers at Monday’s event."

Leave it to the HHS boys to depathologized HRT in order to pathologize menopause. “HRT has saved marriages, rescued women from depression, prevented children from going without a mother,” Dr. Makary said.

So I encourage women experiencing symptoms to do some research and talk to their doctors about HRT if they're interested in pursuing this treatment. And everyone, cut us 40/50-somethings some slack. Our bodies really are not being nice to us.

Women's health has long been neglected and women's symptoms long ignored/minimized, so this is extremely good news for women, especially considering every person with a uterus who lives long enough will experience menopause.

I cannot take HRT because my breast cancer was hormone positive for estrogen and progesterone (the two main hormones used in HRT), but I have heard many positive things from other women taking it, with a significant increase in quality of life.

The black box warning came 20+ years ago after a poorly designed study found a "statistically non-significant increase in the risk of breast cancer diagnosis." Because of this, many doctors have refused to prescribe it in the years since.

For those who don't know, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) provides tremendous benefits to peri-menopausal / menopausal women, reducing the sometimes horrific symptoms of menopause while improving bone density and, for some, reducing cardiovascular risks as well as risks of some cancers.

FDA to lift warnings on menopause hormone therapy, potentially boosting access

The FDA is asking drug manufacturers to remove black box warnings on hormone replacement therapy for menopause, which could make it easier for women to access the treatment.

F.D.A. Will Remove Black Box Warnings From Hormone Treatments for Menopause

The benefits of hormone replacement have been underappreciated, Dr. Marty Makary, the agency’s commissioner, said on Monday. Critics described evidence for the change as insufficient.

Watching RFK Jr. press conference about menopause hormone therapy (MHT). He doesn't even get the name of the therapy right. Uses old misogynist label HRT.
