What you’ll learn: -Why perimenopause is the most misunderstood stage of menopause (and how to know if you're in it!) -Can you really still get pregnant during perimenopause? Dr. Sharon Malone shares her personal story and sets the record straight. -How one study changed women's relationship with estrogen for decades and why it still matters today. -Does hormone therapy cause breast cancer? What today's science truly reveals about hormone therapy and the risk to your health. -Why cardiovascular disease (not breast cancer) is the number one health threat for women, and how estrogen plays a surprising role. -The similarities and differences between hormone therapy and birth control. -Who's actually eligible for hormone therapy (more women qualify than you think!). -Why Black and Hispanic women have a different menopause experience and what it means for treatment. -How younger women can proactively prepare for menopause starting now If you’ve ever felt lost or conflicted about hormone therapy, this episode is for you. Dr. Malone delivers unfiltered, straight-talking advice to help you make the best decision for your body, your health and your future.
