Hormone Replacement Therapy, What Every Woman Needs to Know in 2026 | Dr. Heather Hirsch

Hormone Replacement Therapy, What Every Woman Needs to Know in 2026 | Dr. Heather Hirsch

I’m joined by Dr. Heather Hirsch to debunk the persistent myths surrounding hormone replacement therapy and explain why the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative data was so widely misinterpreted. We discuss how optimized estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels can protect your heart, bones, and brain health, helping you move past "normalized suffering" and into a proactive state of longevity. Whether you are in perimenopause or well past the ten-year window, you'll learn how to navigate personalized dosing and clinical data to reclaim your vitality and extend your health span.
