Am I too old for hormone therapy?”
One of the most common questions women ask — and one of the most misunderstood.

Here’s the truth: Age alone does NOT determine whether hormone therapy is safe.
What matters most is your health profile, your symptoms, and working with a provider who specializes in menopause medicine.

Women in their 50s, 60s, and even 70s can often start or restart hormone therapy safely when properly evaluated. Sleep, mood, bone health, joint pain, and vaginal health can all improve — even years after menopause.

At Evolve, Stephanie Elder, DNP, MBA, ARNP, MSCP (Menopause Society Certified Provider) provides personalized, evidence-based hormone care designed for midlife and beyond. You’re not “too old.” You simply deserve the right support.

If you’re ready to explore whether HRT is right for you, we’re here to help you feel like yourself again — with clarity, confidence, and renewed vitality.

The FDA has officially removed the outdated black box warning on menopause hormone therapy — and this is a huge win for women’s health.

For over 20 years, millions of women were denied safe, evidence-based treatment because of fear created by misunderstood data from the 2002 WHI trial. Today, modern research tells a very different story.

Here are the Top 5 reasons the FDA reversed course:
1. Modern bioidentical HRT is far safer than the synthetic hormones used in the original study.
2. The WHI risks were significantly overstated due to the age and health of participants.
3. HRT actually supports cardiovascular longevity for the right candidates.
4. Breast cancer risk was misunderstood — estrogen alone lowered risk.
5. The benefits for bones, brain, metabolism, and quality of life are too strong to ignore.

Midlife women deserve facts, not fear.
If you’re confused about HRT — you’re not alone. A certified menopause provider can help you understand what’s right for your body.

Most women don’t realize that perimenopause can begin up to 10 years before menopause — and it’s when most symptoms actually start.
Mood swings, brain fog, poor sleep, and sudden weight gain aren’t “just aging.” They’re your hormones signaling change.

Most people think testosterone is only about libido — but this vital hormone impacts so much more.
⠀
For women, testosterone supports energy, motivation, muscle strength, mood, brain function, and metabolism. When it’s balanced, you feel focused, strong, and alive.
⠀
As we enter midlife, levels begin to decline — often causing:
⚡ Constant fatigue
🧠 Brain fog
🔥 Low libido
💪 Muscle loss
💤 Poor sleep
😔 Low motivation
⠀
You don’t have to “just live with it.” Balanced hormones can reignite your energy, restore focus, and help you feel like yourself again.
⠀
At Evolve Menopause & Cardiometabolic Clinic, we use evidence-based, personalized care to restore optimal hormone balance for real results.
⠀
✨ Stronger. Sharper. More vibrant.
Your hormones are the foundation of how you feel. Let’s bring them back into balance.

🚨 Long-awaited change may finally be here 🚨

For more than 20 years, women have been held back by a black box warning on hormone therapy that no longer reflects the best and most current science.

It looks like updates to that warning are coming soon, a long-overdue step toward doing what’s right for women.

As Dr. JoAnn Manson explained: “Women are being tremendously undertreated and are suffering unnecessarily due to a boxed warning that is just class labeling. All hormone therapy products get exactly the same boxed warning, and it is really harming women.”

The evidence is clear: when started at the right time and for the right patient, hormone therapy is safe, effective, and life-changing.

This movement has been powered by brave scientists and physicians who’ve continued to testify, publish, and advocate so that women get care that reflects today’s evidence — not outdated fear.

Thank you for covering this critical update for women’s health. 🙌

This isn’t just about a label. It’s about finally giving women the access and confidence they deserve. 💪✨
