“I have often heard you speak (rave about) the benefits of bio identical hormones. But, what if you are near 70 or older, went through menopause naturally and never took hormones? Is it healthy for a woman to begin hormone therapy at this age? Is the expectation such that a woman remain on hormones the rest of her life? I have not heard you address this. If it is a normal biological function for a woman to move through the phases of menopause- because that’s what a woman naturally does, why is there such a push for women to start taking hormones beginning with perimenopause and after? Yes, I’ve listened to you explain this (and other podcasters touting the efficacy of bio identical hormones), but it’s as if what a woman’s body does naturally has become such a maligned thing. Something to fix. But there are negatives and safety issues associated with the use of bio identical hormones just as there is with traditional hormone therapies. They are not a panacea or cure all as you seem to tout.”
