THE HRT REVIVAL?

For decades, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) has been caught between medical breakthrough and medical controversy. Once widely prescribed, HRT fell dramatically out of favour following the Women’s Health Initiative - a study that changed attitudes towards HRT almost overnight and left a legacy of fear among women and healthcare professionals. But the science didn’t stand still. In this episode of NAKEDVOICE, [TAG] Dr Slava Rakov joins us to explore THE HRT REVIVAL: what the original research really told us, what we’ve learned since, why timing matters, and how a more individualised understanding of benefits and risks is changing the conversation around hormones once again. And there’s a fascinating contradiction at the heart of it all: menopause has never been talked about more - yet HRT use remains surprisingly low. So, after years of fear and confusion, is HRT finally having its revival? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
