What About all the risks I’ve Heard About?
The WHI Study: The 2000 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study was a large, randomized clinical trial that looked at the effects of hormone therapy on women’s health. The study was halted prematurely due to concerns about an increased risk of breast cancer and cardiovascular disease. However, the data from the WHI study has been criticized for being skewed and for not being a true representative of women starting to experience menopause.
In 2016, two of the original WHI researchers published a recanted statement:
“[After the WHI study] reluctance to treat menopausal symptoms has derailed and fragmented the clinical care of midlife women, creating a large and unnecessary burden of suffering.[1]”
