Dr. Suzanne Gilberg is shifting the menopause conversation with science, compassion, and boldness. In this re-airing of one of our favorite episodes, she addresses common fears about hormone replacement therapy (HRT), especially the perceived connection to breast cancer, and unpacks what current data really shows. She also emphasizes the importance of keeping an open mind as science evolves and shares what excites her most about women’s health and aging today.
