In this Hot Take episode, Johanna and Sonya venture beyond the outdated "iron curtain" myth of Menopausal Hormone Therapy after age 60, revealing a new Australian research paper that could transform women's menopause care and longevity.We dive into the confusion that often surrounds vaginal estrogen because of misleading warnings on packaging. The exaggerated risks deter many from reaping the health benefits these products offer and many doctors from prescribing it. And we chat about the anticipated "So Hot Right Now" event at the Sydney Opera House in early 2925. With renowned voices like Dr's Louise Newson, Vonda Wright and Kelly Casperson sharing their expertise with an Australian audience, this event promises to continue to elevate the vibrant dialogue on menopause.
