Summary
Despite the provocative title, this 3-part series takes a thoughtful look at menopause and hormone therapy—starting with the history of hormone replacement and its benefits, then breaking down what “bio-identical” hormones actually means, and finishing with a deep dive into testosterone in women. It’s a straight-talking, patient-friendly exploration of hormones, misconceptions, and what modern science really says. Enjoy part 1 of this series, with guest star (and wife of Dr. Steven Adashek) Aimee Adashek! --- Remember, a podcast is not medical advice. It is simply education. I hope that this podcast will inform and encourage your conversations with your providers about your health and care.
