201. What the Lancet got (really) wrong
What the Lancet got (really) wrong// Have we "Overmedicalized" menopause? Hardly. However, the Lancet authors argue for a 'new' approach to menopause and aging women, stating that an over-simplified narrative of menopause as a health problem to be solved by replacing hormones is not based on evidence and deflects attention from the need for substantial societal shifts in how menopause, and midlife/older women in general, are viewed and treated. Let's break this down because the lancet got it (very) wrong my friends.

There isn't a woman I wouldn't prescribe HRT for // For the last few decades we have made hormone therapy way more complicated than it needs to be. Yes, there is science. True - one size does not fit all. However, I believe that there is no other medication that increases both longevity and quality of life other than HRT.

Customer Reviews
Amazing
Thank God for this woman!!!
Thankful for Dr. Heather’s Show!
Dr. Heather’s podcast really offers the best information and options for discussions on menopause. OB-GYNs just doesn’t take the time (or have the time) to explain “this stage of life!” I’ve recommended the show to many others. 🤙 This is all you need to know and then, go talk to a doctor (like Heather or Heather’s Team!!!) and see how HRT will help you live better and longer!
Fantastic
I’m a primary care doctor and have learned so much from Dr. Hirsch. She has a wealth of experience and knowledge and I love that she speaks from the heart on her podcast episodes. I share this podcast with my patients all the time.
