Episode 141: Navigating Hormone Therapy - Duration of Use, Starting After Age 60, and When to Stop

Benefits of hormone therapy (HT) generally outweigh risks for healthy women with bothersome menopause symptoms. So why does it seem that there is so much fear around how long we use it and when we stop? Hormone therapy does not need to be routinely discontinued in women aged older than 60 or 65 years. In the absence of contraindications, a woman and her doctor can determine her preferred HT formulation, dose and duration. . . . **This is not medical advice, just medical education.  Please ask your doctor medical questions as they pertain to your specific situation.  Educational purposes only. #SkyWomenHealthPodcast #WomenHealth #HealthPodcast #MenopauseAwareness #MenopauseSupport #MenopauseSymptoms #VaginalDryness #PostMenopause #MenopauseRelief #HormoneReplacementTherapy  Dr. Carolyn Moyers, DO is a board certified OBGYN and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine physician, and founder of Sky Women’s Health, a boutique practice in Fort Worth, Texas.
