He reviews clinical data comparing different estradiol dosing strategies and explains why hormone needs vary from woman to woman. The discussion also explores whether adding testosterone provides additional benefit for bone health. Most importantly, he highlights why optimizing hormones must be individualized rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
