Women's Health Initiative

Several misconceptions have impacted the use of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) treatments, preventing women from getting holistic relief from their menopause symptoms. Many women have been told to stay away from HRT, but years of advancement and research have shown different conclusions.

The original Women’s Health Initiative study (WHI), which ran from 1991-2005, suggested a link between HRT and cancer. However, since being released, the researchers have worked hard to clarify that their summaries about HRT were indeed flawed.

The bioidentical hormones used today are vastly different from those used in prior studies from the 90s and early 2000s. Learn more about the WHI, as our doctors debunk myths about menopause and HRT.
