@abcnewslive: Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) use among women nearly doubled between Jan 2017 and April 2026, according to data from Epic Research. HRT often uses estrogen, progestin, or a combination of both to relieve symptoms from menopause including hot flashes, night sweats, and preventing bone loss.
Men have been taking testosterone for years to stay strong and resilient in older age… Why shouldn’t women????

It's doubled because women are publicly speaking about their symptoms and treatment. You don't have to suffer in silence anymore. Young Gen X/Millennials like to talk it out 🤗 We're not accepting being ignored from our doctors. You have options, go check them out 🙌

And now there’s a shortage for the patches. I have neverrrrrr heard of a viagra shortage. If it’s not medicine, failing women, it’s the pharmaceutical companies.

It increases our health exponentially: heart health, bone health, stress level, sleep quality, brain health, etc… It’s a crime against women that it’s been vilified and held back for so many of us.
