After more than 21 years, I still get multiple questions a week about hormone replacement risks, specifically regarding breast cancer, but also fears of other disease risks. Today my partner Dr. Leah Antoniewicz and I are revising the risks and benefits of hormone replacement, and the curious history of the WHI (Women's Health Initiative) study.

We'll be discussing the science behind this very emotional topic, and I hope to lay it all out there for you so that you will have the best information to present to your own doctor and make your own informed choices!

We frequently referred to the book "Estrogen Matters" by Dr.Avrum Blooming and Dr. Carol Tavris and will put a link to that here, as well as a fascinating conversation between Dr. Peter Attia the authors on Peter's podcast.
