A couple of weeks ago, the FDA Commissioner published a WSJ oped “The FDA Liberates Women's Hormone Replacement Therapy” (←gift link) and, with other FDA colleagues, a JAMA essay entitled “Updated Labeling for Menopausal Hormone Therapy” (open-access). That change, and the data cited, led to a series of articles in the days that followed, such as at STAT News “FDA reverses decades-old warning on hormone therapy products for menopause. Agency says the treatments o!fer heart, brain, and bone health benefits” and at the Washington Post “The FDA finally corrects its error on menopause hormone therapy. Women have been needlessly scared away from effective treatments.” If you read through these links, you'll be confused. Does MHT have proven cognitive benefits? What about a study from 1991 that showed ~50% reduction of fatal heart events with MHT? Or the 35% decreased risk of Alzheimer's disease? Or the breast cancer increased risk attributed to medroxyprogesterone acetate?I turned to my go-to gynecologist truth teller, Dr. Jen Gunter, to get her review of the evidence. This is a complex topic, with old data from the 2002 Women's Heath Initiative (WHI), new reports since, population level analysis, changes in preparations of MHT including local delivery, and much more.Here is our conversation which isn't just about MHT but includes “Big Wellness” marketing direct to middle aged women, the new FDA approved drug for hot flashes, the $14 million cut of the NIH's Office of Women's Health , marked increase in philanthropic support of women's health research, the Surgeon General nominee, ovarian failure, and a lightning round on proven benefits of MHT.Here's a brief clip on her views of the women's health “wellness” predatorsWe also discussed the reasons for Dr. Gunter's planned move next year back to Canada after practicing gynecology for 3 decades in the United States. I referred to a recent GT I wrote about the WHI and the potential favorable impact of MHT on the immune system, as suggested by new data on organ clocks. That finding, which has been replicated, may be linked to healthy aging, extending healthspan.****************************Thanks to the >190,000 Ground Truths subscribers from every US state and 210 countries.

On this episode of Innovate & Elevate, Sharon sits down with Dr. Corinne Menn, an OB-GYN, menopause specialist, and breast cancer survivor, to unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in women's health: the relationship between breast cancer risk and hormone therapy. Recorded eight days after the FDA announced it will remove the long-standing black box language on hormone therapy, this conversation traces the legacy of the 2002 Women's Health Initiative press conference, what the data actually showed, and how modern evidence can better guide women and their clinicians today.What You'll Learn from this Episode:What really happened in July 2002, and why the WHI press conference (held eight days before doctors saw the full study) reshaped hormone therapy for a generation.The difference between estrogen alone and combined estrogen–progestin therapy, and why age, timing, and formulation matter.Why every major professional society (ASCO, ACOG, American Urological Association, The Menopause Society) agrees that local, low-dose vaginal hormones do not increase breast cancer risk, recurrence, or mortality.The role of tools like the Tyrer–Cuzick breast cancer risk model in understanding your baseline risk - and how Dr. Menn interprets those results in the context of HRT.Dr. Menn's own story: being diagnosed with ER/PR-positive breast cancer at 28 during OB-GYN residency, going through abrupt menopause, and later discovering a BRCA2 mutation after updated genetic testingHow she now counsels breast cancer survivors about menopause, quality of life, and when hormone therapy may or may not be appropriatePractical ways women can prepare for a time-limited doctor's visit to have more informed, individualized conversations about breast cancer risk and hormone therapyAs always, nothing in this episode is personal medical advice. Please talk with your own clinician about your individual history, risks, and options.Connect with Sharon:On LinkedInOn InstagramLearn more about the Innovate and Elevate podcastSubscribe to Innovate and Elevate on YouTubeJoin the newsletter to receive the latest episodes in your inboxConnect with Dr. Corinne Menn:On LinkedInOn InstagramLearn more on her websiteBreast Cancer Risk Models & Screening Tools:Tyrer–Cuzick (IBIS) Breast Cancer Risk Model - https://ems-trials.org/riskevaluator/ Gail Model (Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool) - https://bcrisktool.cancer.gov POSITIVE Trial – New England Journal of Medicine - https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2215851 Hormone Therapy, Menopause Guidelines & Professional Societies:The...

A blown engine, a rodeo barn, and a dirt lot aren't the usual ingredients for a thriving auto recycling business—unless you're David Markham. We sit down with the founder of EAT Partz to unpack how grit, mentorship, and the right tech stack turned a side hustle into a disciplined, growing yard in Middletown, Ohio.We trace the path from that first teardown to buying property, laying gravel, installing racking, and transforming chaos into a location-based, barcode-driven system. David shares how mentors like JC Cahill, Eric Pearson, and Rob Rainwater fast-tracked his learning, why yard tours matter, and how a collaborative industry culture lets the “big dogs” help new operators avoid costly mistakes. Along the way, we dig into the tools moving the needle: PowerLink for operations, URG's core program for added revenue, and WHI's eBay integration for stronger listings and cleaner order flow—now streamlined with URG Sales Support to cut tabs and clicks for busy teams.We also get personal about leadership, capital discipline, and balance. David's week blends yard work, rodeo responsibilities, and family life, all anchored by a simple playbook: invest profits back into capacity, build process before scale, and keep learning every day. Looking forward, we explore where recycling tech needs to go—faster photos, flexible cloud workflows, and changes that respect how different yards operate. The takeaway is clear: automotive recycling is resilient, community-driven, and full of opportunity for operators willing to share, systemize, and evolve.If you enjoyed this story and want more practical insights from the people shaping modern recycling, follow the show, share this episode with a colleague, and leave a quick review so others can find it.

This episod is brought to you by Cured Nutrition, Caldera Lab and Joi & Blokes. Dr. Jessica Shepherd—OB/GYN, clinical advisor for P-Volv, and author of Generation M—breaks down everything women need to know about perimenopause, menopause, and longevity. She explains why mindset is the foundation of midlife health, how declining estrogen affects every organ system, why only 8% of symptomatic women ever receive a diagnosis, and how common comorbidities rise 45% or more between ages 40–59. Dr. Shepherd shares science-backed strategies for navigating symptoms, improving metabolic and mitochondrial health, understanding the truth about hormone therapy after the flawed WHI study (which led to an 82% decline in prescriptions), and using exercise, protein, and muscle-building to protect cognition, heart health, and overall vitality. Whether you're a woman entering midlife—or a partner wanting to better support her—this conversation is a masterclass in women's health, empowerment, and aging well.

Wat gebeurt er als je de menopauze op de werkvloer eindelijk bespreekbaar maakt? Oud-apotheker en marketeer binnen de vrouwengezondheid Filip de Groeve kwam erachter dat er drie taboe-onderwerpen zijn op de werkvloer: menstruatie, moederschap en menopauze. De drie M's. Hij begon erover te spreken, trok steeds vollere zalen en besloot er zijn job van te maken. In deze aflevering legt hij uit waarom vrouwen vaker zwijgen dan verzuimen, hoe kennis taboes doorbreekt, en wat werkgevers nú al kunnen doen. Samen met Anneke Valk schreef hij het boek Zwijgverzuim - over alles wat er misgaat als vrouwen hun klachten verzwijgen, en werkgevers wegkijken – dat nu in de winkels ligt.We praten over:· Waarom ‘ziekteverzuim' vaak eigenlijk zwijgverzuim is.· Waarom kennis het krachtigste medicijn is tegen schaamte.· Hoe één begripvolle manager meer kan doen dan duizend vitaliteitswebinars.· En waarom hormoonsuppletie nog steeds in de ban is — ondanks álle herzieningen van de WHI-studie van 2002.Filip De Groeve is spreker, auteur en adviseur rond medische taboes en inclusie. Hij werkt als adviseur bij o.a. Vi Health, waar hij binnen het consortium Overgang en Werk (met onder meer Arbo Unie, Social Finance en Amsterdam UMC) de impact van menopauzebeleid in organisaties onderzoekt. Eerder was hij actief in de farmaceutische sector met een internationale focus op vrouwengezondheid en fertiliteit. Filip is apotheker van opleiding en woont als Belg in Utrecht.

Dans cet épisode, qui est diffusé moins de 24 h après l'annonce de la FDA américaine qu'elle va retirer le black box warning sur l'hormonothérapie de remplacement pour les femmes ménopausées, nous abordons l'impact de l'estradiol sur la santé cardiovasculaire des femmes. Les études montrent que l'hormonothérapie réduit le risque de mortalité, notamment quand elle est commencée avant 60 ans, en diminuant le risque de maladies cardiaques, fractures, Alzheimer et mortalité globale. La dénégation historique liée à l'étude WHI a nui aux femmes pendant des décennies, mais la science prouve que l'hormonothérapie, surtout si débutée précocement, est bénéfique. Les symptômes comme les bouffées de chaleur, les palpitations, et leur lien avec le risque cardiovasculaire, qui ne devraient pas être ignorés. L'estradiol soutient la santé cardiaque en améliorant la fonction vasculaire, en réduisant l'inflammation, et en préservant la santé des vaisseaux. Enfin, l'hormonothérapie semble plus efficace que les statines pour prévenir ces maladies, mais elle est encore sous-utilisée en prévention primaire. La science avance, il est temps de repenser nos notions sur la ménopause et la santé des femmes.Les messages clés de l'épisode sont : Les symptômes de la ménopause peuvent être très incommodants, et même engendrer de l'insomnie et de la dépression. Les bouffées de chaleur sont particulièrement problématiques, et environ 80% des femmes vont en avoir. La sévérité des bouffées de chaleur est associée à un risque accru de maladie cardiovasculaire, mais plus d'études sont nécessaires pour savoir si c'est un lien de cause à effet. Les palpitations cardiaques sont aussi fréquentes en périménopause et en ménopause et elles sont habituellement causées par la baisse de l'estradiol, mais mieux vaut consulter son médecin si on ressent des palpitations et ne pas simplement déduire que c'est les hormones. L'estradiol soutient la santé cardiaque en améliorant le profil lipidique, en réduisant l'inflammation et en maintenant la flexibilité des vaisseaux sanguins.L'hormonothérapie de remplacement, selon les études, semble être plus efficace pour prévenir les maladies cardiovasculaires que les statines, chez les femmes, mais à l'heure actuelle, en Amérique du Nord, on ne la recommande pas encore d'emblée pour prévenir la survenue de ces maladies.Nous aimerions vous inviter à découvrir Transforma, notre programme en ligne de perte de poids qui a été pensé tout particulièrement pour les femmes en périménopause et ménopause.

Dave Young of WHI Solutions shares a compelling story about transforming automotive recycling through e-commerce innovation. Having celebrated 31 years with the company, Young's journey parallels the evolution of digital parts sales, particularly since WHI's acquisition by eBay in 2012.What started as a technology gap has blossomed into a game-changing partnership. While WHI excelled at helping sellers list new aftermarket parts on eBay, they lacked specialized tools for the unique challenges of salvage yards. Enter URG (United Recyclers Group), whose industry expertise perfectly complemented WHI's technological capabilities. Together, they've developed solutions that address the specific needs of auto recyclers - from handling fitment data to incorporating mileage, condition, and other crucial details that differentiate recycled parts.The results speak volumes: nearly 60 yards now collectively sell millions in parts monthly through the platform. URG members using WHI Solutions average a 25% revenue increase, with standout performers like Bessler Auto Parts achieving an astonishing 440% growth in just months. This success stems from the dramatic efficiency gains of bulk listing - what once required 30+ minutes of manual work per part now happens automatically at scale.Beyond impressive numbers, Young emphasizes the mutually beneficial relationship that makes this partnership special. "It's good for everybody," he notes, describing the synergy that creates value for WHI, URG members, and parts buyers alike. He particularly values the community atmosphere at URG events, which feel more like "family reunions" than typical industry conferences.For recyclers curious about boosting their digital sales channels, the process starts with a simple 30-minute conversation. WHI representatives work closely with each yard to understand their current operations, management system, and goals before crafting a personalized implementation plan. Experience this partnership firsthand by connecting through URG or meeting the WHI team at upcoming industry events like the ARA conference in Birmingham this October.

Send us a textWelcome back to Ending Physician Overwhelm! As we head into the last week of August 2025 and prepare for back-to-school season, it's time to think about something we do constantly as physicians: learning.The Evolution of Medical LearningYou've been a professional learner your entire career. Medical school, residency, fellowship, boards, CME requirements - you've mastered the art of absorbing information and passing tests. But here's the question that might change everything: Who are you actually learning from?If you're like most of us who trained in the early 2000s, your medical education came primarily from older white men reading the same traditional journals and following conventional pathways. While this wasn't inherently wrong, it created a narrow lens that may no longer serve you - or your patients.Breaking Out of Traditional Learning BoxesAs medicine evolves, so should your sources of knowledge. Whether you're exploring:Obesity medicine (where traditional training left massive gaps)Menopause care (practically non-existent in most curricula thanks to the WHI study fallout)Lifestyle medicine approachesNew practice models that prioritize patient connectionYou need voices that reflect the reality of modern healthcare delivery, not just academic theory.The Current Medical Learning LandscapeHere's what's happening right now that affects how you learn:Traditional resources are under threat: With political forces dismantling institutions like ACIP and creating uncertainty around CDC guidance, you're losing historically reliable sources of information.AI is changing everything: Your residents and students are using AI tools that you may not fully understand, yet you're expected to guide them safely through this new landscape.Diversity of voices matters: The patients you serve come from all backgrounds - shouldn't your teachers reflect that diversity too?Finding Your New Learning PathAsk yourself these critical questions:Who is doing the work the way you want to do it?Are you open to being challenged and learning new approaches?Can you unlearn outdated information that's no longer serving your patients?How will you vet new sources of information in an era of compromised traditional resources?Practical Steps for Better LearningSeek out practitioners who:Are actively treating patients (not just publishing papers)Offer practical, real-world applicationsDiscuss the full picture including costs, side effects, and patient experienceChallenge traditional approaches with evidence-based alternativesConsider learning formats beyond traditional CME:Podcasts from practicing physiciansCourses from specialists doing the workMentorship from independent practitionersBooks and resources from diverse voices in medicineThe Power Support the showTo learn more about my coaching practice and group offerings, head over to www.healthierforgood.com.

There's a lot of fear and misinformation around HRT, and one of the biggest myths is that HT is a highly significant cause of breast cancer. That is not the case. This is a remnant concept from 2002, with MANY caveats. Calls for the removal of the black box warning on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) stems primarily from the outdated and limited nature of the data from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study published in 2002. The WHI, while groundbreaking at the time, focused predominantly on a specific formulation of conjugated equine estrogens (CEE) and medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) in older, postmenopausal women, leading to concerns about its generalizability to the broader population of women considering HRT. This is why on July 17, 2025, the FDA met with a panel of experts, in open forum, to hear the petition of removing the black box warning on hormone replacement therapy. Listen in for details. 1.

In this week's episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by her mother, Ann Newson, for a candid and deeply insightful conversation about HRT after 60, as requested by some ofour viewers.  Together, Dr Louise and Ann address the persistent fears around breast cancer and HRT, revisiting data from the controversial 2002 WHI study. They also explore the crucial differences between the older forms of synthetic HRT derived from pregnant horse's urine and today's body identical hormones, which have the same molecular structure as hormones produced by your body.Ann reflects on her own journey with menopause, shaped by a generation that ‘didn't talk about health issues... periods were “the curse” and menopause was just “the change”.' She shares powerful memories of struggling through exhaustion and that at times, coping was simply putting ‘one foot in front of the other'. Together they explore why stopping HRT after the age of 60 should be an individualised choice. Ann also shares her own experiences, frustrations, and how hormones could have possibly impacted her relationship with her daughter, without even realising it. With warmth, humour, and wisdom, this episode champions the importance of informed choice, patient-centred care, and the right to feel well at any age. Read more about HRT in later life on Dr Louise's website here, and an article on the difference between natural and synthetic hormones here.We hope you love the new series!

'I'm a journalist, and I'm always trying to make sense of stories... that's just how my brain works. But I've never been able to make sense of this one... the whole HRT story, the information women are given, and the choices we make based on information we're not entirely sure about. I've always felt that was just unsatisfactory. So that overview from you, I have found really, really interesting'.In this week's episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by broadcaster and journalist Kaye Adams — a familiar face from ITV's Loose Women and host of the How to Be 60 podcast — for a candid and deeply insightful conversation about navigating menopause in your sixties, the vital role of hormones, and the ongoing confusion around HRT (hormone replacement therapy).Drawing on her background in pathology and neurophysiology, Dr Louise unpacks decades of overlooked science showing how hormones like oestradiol, progesterone, and testosterone influence everything from brain function and inflammation to bone health and dementia risk. She explains how hormones deficiencies can create a perfect storm for disease, and why understanding their role at a cellular level is crucial for women's long-term health.Together, Dr Louise and Kaye address the persistent fears around breast cancer and HRT, revisiting data from the controversial WHI study. Dr Louise explains how misinterpretation and media panic have caused widespread confusion and lasting harm to women's health. Dr Louise also highlights the significant reductions in risks such as cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis that HRT can offer, questioning why compelling evidence is still often ignored by mainstream medicine.Kaye shares her personal reflections and doubts as a woman navigating healthcare in a landscape clouded by misinformation. Their discussion becomes a powerful call for clearer, evidence-based communication, encouraging women to feel empowered, not frightened, when considering treatment.Available to watch on YouTubeWe hope you love the new series!

After his resurrection, Luke 24 records that Jesus walked with two of his disciples on the road to Emmaus, and during that journey, we're told that “Beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.” So what OT passages did Jesus likely have in mind as he discussed the Hebrew Bible with these two disciples?

In this episode, she shares her deep expertise on the often-overlooked topic of women's sexual health, exploring why this area remains so neglected in traditional medicine and highlighting the critical differences in how men and women experience hormonal decline with age. Rachel explains the physiology of the menstrual cycle, the complex hormonal shifts of perimenopause, and the wide-reaching health risks associated with menopause, including osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, dementia, and recurrent urinary tract infections. She also breaks down the controversy surrounding hormone replacement therapy (HRT), particularly the damaging legacy of the Women's Health Initiative study, and provides guidance on the safe and personalized use of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in women. With particular emphasis on local vaginal hormone therapy—a safe, effective, and underused treatment—Rachel offers insights that have the potential to transform quality of life for countless women. We discuss: Rachel's training in urology and passion for sexual medicine and women's health [3:00]; Hormonal changes during ovulation, perimenopause, and menopause: why they occur and how they impact women's health and quality of life [5:30]; Why women have such varied responses to the sharp drop in progesterone during the luteal phase and after menopause, and the differing responses to progesterone supplementation [14:45]; The physical and cognitive health risks for postmenopausal women who are not on hormone therapy [17:45]; The history of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and how misinterpretation of the Women's Health Initiative study led to abandonment of HRT [20:15]; The medical system's failure to train doctors in hormone therapy after the WHI study and its lasting impact on menopause care [29:30]; The underappreciated role of testosterone in women's sexual health, and the systemic and regulatory barriers preventing its broader use in female healthcare [35:00]; The bias against HRT—how institutional resistance is preventing meaningful progress in women's health [46:30]; How the medical system's neglect of menopause care has opened the door for unregulated and potentially harmful hormone clinics to take advantage of underserved women [53:30]; The HRT playbook for women part 1: progesterone [57:15]; The HRT playbook for women part 2: estradiol [1:05:00]; Oral formulated estrogen for systemic administration: risks and benefits [1:13:15]; Topical and vaginal estrogen delivery options: benefits and limitations, and how to personalize treatment for each patient [1:17:15]; How to navigate hormone lab testing without getting misled [1:24:15]; The wide-ranging symptoms of menopause—joint pain, brain fog, mood issues, and more [1:31:45]; The evolution of medical terminology and the underrecognized importance of local estrogen therapy for urinary and vaginal health in menopausal women [1:37:45]; The benefits of vaginal estrogen (or DHEA) for preventing UTIs, improving sexual health, and more [1:41:00]; The use of DHEA and testosterone in treating hormone-sensitive genital tissues, and an explanation of what often causes women pain [1:50:15]; Is it too late to start HRT after menopause? [1:56:15]; Should women stop hormone therapy after 10 years? [1:58:15]; How to manage hormone therapy in women with BRCA mutations, DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ), or a history of breast cancer [2:00:00]; How women can identify good menopause care providers and avoid harmful hormone therapy practices, and why menopause medicine is critical for both women and men [2:06:00]; and More.

#152 - Your Doctor Won't Tell You This: The Real Reason Your Hormones Are The Missing Link to Anti-Aging – with Dr. Sarah DaccarettEver feel like your health took a nosedive after 35, and no amount of kale, supplements, or sleep is fixing it? You're not crazy. Your hormones are begging for attention. This week, I'm talking to Dr. Sarah Daccarett, a leading expert in anti-aging and hormone replacement therapy, who's here to debunk myths, spill the truth about HRT, and explain why doctors still stand by outdated research (this will blow your mind). In our conversation, we dive into:

In this episode, Dr Louise is joined by renowned American OB-GYN, integrative medicine specialist and globally renowned women's health expert, Dr Felice Gersh. Together Louise and Felice delve into the science of hormones, how menopause care differs between the US and UK, and the harmful past of women's medicine – from the vaginal mesh scandal to the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study which continues to impact access to HRT for women globally. Louise also speaks to Felice about the impact of weight loss drugs like Ozempic on women experiencing hormonal changes, and the impact of oestradiol on weight management.   With decades of experience, Felice is Medical Director of the Integrative Medical Group Irvine, which provides integrative services to support female longevity and complex disease management. Having witnessed the changes to women's health over the years, she speaks candidly about her own concerns about the use of vaginal mesh, before its true harms came to light many years later. Felice and Louise also shed light on the infamous WHI study, which dramatically cut the number of women using HRT across the world.   To learn more about Felice, visit her Instagram here.   Available on watch on YouTube We hope you're loving the new series!

On this episode Shane discusses a number of scenes from the book of Exodus and shows how they point to Christ and his ultimate redemptive mission. Jesus is the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, the bread of life, the living water, the light of the world, and the good shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep.SHOW NOTESArticlesFinding Christ in All of Scripture, Shane RosenthalNew Life in the New Year: The Story of Exodus, Shane RosenthalPassover, The Last Supper & The Day of Crucifixion, Shane RosenthalWhere Was Jesus Crucified?, Shane RosenthalConsidering Alternatives to the Resurrection, Shane RosenthalBart Ehrman on Jesus & The Claim of Resurrection, Shane RosenthalDid Palm Trees Grow in Jerusalem at the Time of Jesus?

According to Ex. 13:21, as the people of Israel made their way out of Egypt, we're told that Yahweh went before the people of Israel in a pillar of cloud and fire. What's odd, however, is that the next chapter tells us it was the “angel of God” who went before the host of Israel in the pillar (Ex 4:19). So, how do we explain the difference between these two passages? Did an angel lead the people out of Egypt, or was it Yahweh himself? On this episode, Shane discusses these questions and more with Matt Foreman and Doug Van Dorn, authors of The Angel of the Lord: A Biblical, Historical, and Theological Study.For a gift of any amount to help support the work of The Humble Skeptic podcast, we'll send you a 12-page PDF resource titled “Finding Christ in All of Scripture.” Click here for a preview.SHOW NOTESRelated BooksThe Angel of the Lord, Doug Van Dorn & Matt ForemanJesus in the Old Testament, Iain DuguidJourneys with Jesus, Dennis JohnsonEchoes of Exodus: Tracing the Theme of Redemption, Roberts & WilsonJoseph: A Story of Love, Hate, Slavery, Power & Forgiveness, John LennoxThe Surprising Genius of Jesus, Peter J.

It remained in first or second place for the rest of the century. Until 2002 when the media got a hold of the results of the Women's Health Initiative study. Doctors around the world were warned not prescribe it and women were told that it was dangerous and shouldn't be on it. But since that time there has been a reanalysis of the study with a much different outcome then was first perceived. Yet we as women and our doctors have heard very little if anything about the benefits and safety of hormone replacement. In this episode: what the WHI study found in their trials the reanalysis of the study and what it really showed HRT versus BHRT a deep dive into the multiply studies done on HRT and BHRT (bioidentical hormone replacement therapy) can BHRT help with weight loss? does hormone replacement cause breast cancer? and much more!

There are very few givens when it comes to menopause - and mostly unanswered questions. Should you treat menopause with hormones? Do hormones cause breast cancer? Do hormones cause heart disease? What about non-hormonal alternatives? Shouldn't you just stop complaining? In this episode, we'll offer a few answers about how we got here - decades after the abrupt end of the Women's Health Initiative, the first study of its kind to look at the effects of hormone therapy on women's health. We'll hear from Dr. Marcia Stefanick who worked on the original WHI study and meet Dr. Joann Pinkerton and Dr. Wen Shen, who have devoted their careers to improving women's lives at midlife.

Today our guest is Dr. JoAnn Manson, an endocrinologist, epidemiologist, and Principal Investigator of several research studies, including the landmark Women's Health Initiative. She is a highly cited researcher and was one of the physicians featured in the National Library of Medicine's exhibition, History of American Women Physicians. Her primary research interests include clinical prevention trials of nutritional and lifestyle factors related to heart disease, diabetes, and cancer and the role of endogenous and exogenous estrogens as determinants of chronic disease. Show notes: [00:02:53] Dawn kicks off the interview by asking JoAnn what it was that drew her to endocrinology. [00:04:33] Ken asks how the things JoAnn witnessed in her early medical practice influenced her interest in disease prevention. [00:05:51] Dawn asks JoAnn to discuss how her mother, who suffered from ovarian cancer, influenced JoAnn's focus on women's health. [00:06:40] Dawn asks JoAnn what prompted her interest in clinical research. [00:08:06] Noting the difference between public health and laboratory medical research, Dawn asks JoAnn what the most valuable thing is that she learned from her master's and Ph.D. work in public health at Harvard. [00:09:10] Ken mentions that while JoAnn and many others are interested in the prevention of disease, our healthcare system does not seem focused on prevention. Ken goes on to asks if this was part of what led JoAnn to work on the Nurses' Health Study. [00:10:17] Ken asks JoAnn to give an overview of the Nurses' Health Study for listeners who may not be familiar. [00:11:41] Dawn explains that the Nurses' Health Study found that women taking hormone therapy had a lower risk of heart disease and a reduction in all-cause mortality. Dawn asks JoAnn to talk about this finding. [00:15:00] Ken asks JoAnn what the impact of the Nurses' Study has been on public health and women's health in general. [00:16:29] Dawn asks JoAnn about her experience being a principal investigator in the Women's Health Initiative starting in 1993. [00:18:17] Ken asks JoAnn to give context regarding how the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) was designed, how the women were recruited, and what the specific questions were that the study aimed to answer. [00:21:34] Dawn mentions that the three interventions that were evaluated in the WHI were hormone therapy; calcium and vitamin D supplementation; and a low-fat diet. Dawn starts by asking JoAnn about the hormone therapy interventions, and how it was decided which hormone therapies to test. [00:24:25] Dawn asks JoAnn to give some context to the finding from the WHI that women taking the combination of conjugated estrogen and medroxyprogesterone acetate had higher risks of breast cancer and stroke. [00:27:01] Ken asks if the worse outcomes from hormone therapy for older women was due to their advanced age, or the hormone therapy itself. [00:30:25] Ken asks JoAnn to talk about the risk factors for breast cancer that were uncovered by the WHI. [00:35:38] Dawn explains that because of the WHI's findings, it is more common to use transdermal estradiol, as opposed to the oral form evaluated in the original trial. Dawn asks JoAnn to explain how the different ways these hormone formulations are processed in the body affects the risk benefit ratio. [00:39:04] Dawn asks if these transdermal estradiol treatments might have benefits regarding cognitive decline. [00:43:26] Ken asks JoAnn for her thoughts on the overuse and potential misuse of the term ‘bioidentical hormones.' Ken goes on to note that the term has seemingly become more related to marketing and further distanced from clinical science. [00:46:48] Dawn asks JoAnn to talk about the role that perimenopausal birth control decisions can play in the management of hot flashes for women in their 40s and 50s. [00:49:14] Ken shifts the conversation to discuss the second pillar of the WHI,
