What experts have said about Hormone therapy

2 statements · 1 positive · 1 mixed

  1. Hormone therapy decisions should depend on symptoms rather than age alone

    “she may not need anything at all. But what if she starts getting a lot of urinary tract infections or having dry, scratchy, painful sex, or her libido just doesn't feel. It sort of feels like back when it did on birth control pills. That may be an indication where she may benefit from, whether it's testosterone or vaginal hormones or some kind of combination combination.”

  2. Hormone therapy may protect cardiovascular, cognitive, and bone health.

    “for women, we see it be cardio protective. It can help lower the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Of course it can be protective for your bones.”
