In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by US-based OB-GYN Dr Jordan Emont to explore why so many women are still being denied hormones, despite clear evidence of their benefits. They discuss the ongoing fear and misinformation surrounding body identical hormones, the confusion with synthetic hormones used in contraception and why this is leaving many women unsupported. Louise and Jordan also highlight the inequalities in menopause care and the wider health consequences of untreated hormone deficiency, including heart disease, osteoporosis and mental health.
