Dr. Louise Newson is a physician, hormone specialist and one of the world's leading voices in transforming menopause care. We discuss the misconceptions about menopause and hormone treatment, the benefits that HRT can provide even for women without overt symptoms, and how it can play a significant role in maintaining long-term health.
Dr Louise highlights that hormonal changes affect every cell in our bodies, leading to surprising symptoms that women may not initially connect to their hormonal shifts. We explore the lesser-known effects of menopause that are frequently overlooked.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a vital, but often misunderstood topic for women navigating the confusing journey of perimenopause and menopause. Dr Louise answers all my questions.
Takeaways:
- Hormonal changes during menopause can lead to a wide range of symptoms beyond hot flushes.
- It's crucial for women to understand that many common symptoms are often misattributed and could be linked to hormonal changes.
- Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can significantly improve quality of life by alleviating symptoms and reducing long-term health risks.
- Many women remain unaware of the benefits of HRT, even if they don't have obvious symptoms, making education vital.
- Testosterone plays an extremely important role in women's health, affecting mood, energy, and cognitive function.
- Despite the benefits and advancements in understanding HRT, misconceptions and fears still prevent many women from receiving appropriate treatment.
