🌟 Breaking News for Women’s Wellness & Hormone Care 🌟
We’re thrilled to share that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced the removal of the long-standing boxed (“black box”) warning from many hormone therapies used for menopause symptoms. The warning had previously flagged serious risks like heart attack, stroke, dementia and breast cancer.
✅ What this means for you:
Hormone therapy may now be viewed more openly as a safe, modern option for women experiencing symptoms of menopause (like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness) when initiated under proper guidance.
As specialists in women’s wellness, we at Coastal Medical + Wellness are ready to help you understand what this change means — and whether hormone therapy is right for you.
Importantly: This doesn’t mean “no risks” — hormone therapy still needs individualized assessment (age, timing since menopause, health history) and shared decision-making.
🎯 Why this is a game-changer:
For too long, the black box warning has kept many women and providers from considering hormone therapy — even when symptoms were seriously affecting quality of life. The new labeling aims to remove that barrier and encourage conversation.
📅 Ready to talk? If you’ve been experiencing bothersome menopause symptoms (vaginal dryness, urinary issues, pelvic floor changes, mood swings, sleep disruption) and have been hesitant about hormone therapy — now is a better time than ever to schedule a consultation.
