So many women are wrongly told they need to stop taking hormone treatments when they reach a certain age, yet there is no evidence-based age limit for natural hormone treatments.
In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by Paula Keats who previously worked in the City as a Head of HR for an international investment bank. Paula has been taking hormone treatments for 33 years and is still benefiting from them at the age of 77 and shares why she chose to continue hormone treatments through the fallout of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study, the difference hormones have made to her life, and why she has no intention of stopping.
Together, Louise and Paula discuss the misconceptions surrounding hormone treatments in later life, why so many women are still being denied hormone treatments because of their age, and the importance of individualised care and treatments rather than arbitrary cut-offs.
Whether you’re already taking hormone treatments, wondering if you should continue, or have been told you’re “too old” to start, this episode will give you the information and confidence to have informed conversations and make the choices that are right for you.
