Inside Modern Hormone Therapy: Safety, Symptoms, and Smarter Telehealth

Dr. Mills sits down with hormone therapy physician and entrepreneur Dr. Peter Fotinos to unpack the difference between “hormone replacement” and true hormone optimization. They dig into how studies like the Women’s Health Initiative shaped decades of fear, and why symptoms and lived experience sometimes matter more than a single lab cutoff. The conversation also tackles common pitfalls of “testosterone mill” medicine (including routine aromatase inhibitors), plus what’s changing in women’s hormone care and why testosterone matters for women beyond libido. Finally, Dr. Fotinos shares how he’s scaling more responsible, check-in-driven telehealth—and what proactive medicine can look like for the everyday guy staring down metabolic syndrome.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
