Big win for women! The providers of Essential Health and the HRT community have been defending our care against the misleading Black Box Warning for years. If you haven’t already heard, the FDA will remove its Black Box Warning on HRT (hormone replacement therapy), which will eliminate the outdated emphasis on fear-based risks that historically discouraged use. Countless studies have shown that HRT offers substantial advantages and not just with vasomotor symptoms, like hot flashes and night sweats. Additionally, it prevents osteoporosis, reduces fracture risk, lowers cardiovascular disease, decreases cognitive decline, and Alzheimer’s risk.
We anticipate that this will increase hormone replacement prescriptions among women. We love that! By restoring confidence in the therapy’s safety profile and evidence-based benefits, this update will surely enhance quality of life and long-term health outcomes for millions of future menopausal women.
HRT is still a delicate balance, and you should not go to just anyone who is willing to write a script. Every woman is unique, and hormone replacement therapy should be managed by a hormone-trained provider. Schedule a complimentary meet and greet with one of our hormone specialists today. We look forward to having an informed conversation with you and how HRT can optimize YOUR life!
