🎙️ Episode Title:

“Hormones Off the Hook: What the FDA’s New Decision Means for Women, HRT, and the Future of Menopause Care”

💡 Episode Summary:

For decades, women have been warned that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is risky business — linked to heart disease, cancer, and every imaginable midlife horror story.

But that narrative just flipped.

In a landmark move, the FDA has lifted the black box warnings from many HRT products — a long-overdue acknowledgment that the old data was outdated, misunderstood, and unnecessarily fear-inducing.

In this episode, Joanne breaks down:

• 
  

  🔍 What the FDA actually did — and how it changes the landscape for women in midlife.

  
  


• 
  

  ⚖️ Why the original warnings were wrong for most women and what new research reveals about timing, dosage, and delivery.

  
  


• 
  

  💊 The arrival of a new non-hormonal medication (Lynkuet / Elinzanetant) for hot flashes and night sweats — and who it’s perfect for.

  
  


• 
  

  🧬 How all of this impacts your hormones, body composition, recovery, and long-term health.

  
  

This episode is your science-based, hype-free breakdown of one of the most important updates in women’s health in decades.

If you’ve ever been told HRT is “too risky,” or you’ve suffered through hot flashes, mood swings, or sleepless nights because you thought you had no options — this conversation changes everything.
