Dr. Vonda Wright argues women should start estrogen in perimenopause, as early as 35 to 45, to cut the risk of stroke, heart disease, and osteoporosis by 60%. She frames hormone therapy as preventive medicine for thriving in later decades.
You can decrease the odds by 60% of the following diseases by starting hormones earlier. In perimenopause, stroke, cardiovascular disease, heart attack, brain death and osteoporosis.
Starting earlier is really prevention is the best medicine.
Listen, I can help anybody, 50, 60, 70 year olds. But if you truly want to get in front of prevention, the critical decade, people 35 to 45 need to wake up.
But you don't have to suffer to be natural. As a woman, you should be in a position to thrive all the way through your 50s, 60s, 70s.
It is a war cry that I am going to save the health of the women coming after me.
How soon can a woman reasonably start hormone therapy? Estrogen, pregnenolone supplementation?
If we're truly interested, Gary, in preventive health for women.
