HRT - not a breast cancer risk? With the UK’s leading Menopause specialist Dr Louise Newson

It is astonishing to think how badly educated we all are about
such an important topic; how much misinformation is out there and
how understudied women’s health really is. 


"Menopause is a huge cause of osteoporosis, dementia and
heart disease… and the most common cause of death in women is…
dementia and heart disease!”


Since our episode with Dr Shahzadi Harper on perimenopause we
realised we needed to find out more, especially about the
questions around hormone replacement therapy (HRT). So, we
decided to dig deeper and talk to “the leading menopause
specialist,” according to The Telegraph, Dr Louise Newson.


Dr Louise Newson is Founder of Balance App, the world’s biggest
repository of evidence-based and medically approved menopause
information. 


Dr Newson is a trailblazer when it comes to empowering women in
making informed decisions to benefit their health and wellness.
Author of Sunday Times No.1 bestseller, ‘Preparing for the
Perimenopause and the Menopause,’ Dr Newson is also Founder of
The Menopause Charity and not-for-profit Newson Health Research
& Education.


A highly insightful conversation that has opened many questions
and made us reflect on our current health system and wonder what
can be trusted?

Big love,
