Dr. Bluming is a medical oncology doctor and has been studying the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) administered to women with a history of breast cancer for over 2 decades.
In his book, which he co-authored with social physiologist Dr. Carol Travis, PhD, they investigate the studies that have mislead millions of women into believing HRT is detrimental to female health and could even lead to cancer. They set the record straight on how it can actually be a beneficial treatment for women, improve wellbeing & even lengthen life particularly when taken from the start of menopause.
In this episode they discuss:
- The role of oestrogen in female health
- What happens to oestrogen during menopause & the consequences of this for female health
- The seriously flawed study, The Women’s Health Initiative, that lead people to believe the negative press perpetrated by medics and the media around HRT
- The proven scientific benefits of HRT for female health from easing symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, to reducing risk of heart disease, Alzheimer’s, osteoporosis an some cancers
- The importance of this information to empower women when discussing the best course of treatment for them during menopause to ensure they maintain optimum health
