HRT Basics: What to Ask Your Doctor

Hormone therapy isn't the villain it was made out to be in 2002.

The quick explanation
Modern HRT (often called MHT — menopausal hormone therapy) uses lower doses and body-identical hormones. Research now supports its benefits for many women, especially when started within 10 years of menopause.
Why this matters
You deserve an evidence-based conversation, not fear-based dismissal. Knowing what to ask gets you there.
