About this episode

Dr. Lorna Brudie discusses the misconceptions surrounding hormone replacement therapy and the importance of self-advocacy in women's health.

This powerful clip is from episode 356. In this Microsode, I sit down with Dr. Lorna Brudie, a double board-certified gynecologic oncologist, women's hormone specialist, and Medical Director at Excel Medical to talk about the Women’s Health Initiative, the decades of confusion around hormone replacement therapy, and what happens when women are dismissed instead of investigated. But underneath all of it is something deeper: the danger of disconnecting from your body long enough that exhaustion, brain fog, anxiety, poor sleep, and burnout become “normal.” This episode is a reminder that prevention requires responsibility. No one is coming to advocate for your health harder than you. Missed the Full Episode?
