HRT in Your 60s, 70s, or 80s? Yes, It’s Still an Option // This podcast is sponsored by Cozy Earth, products that I have lived in this winter! Use CODE: CozyDrHeather for a discount at Cozy Earth: cozyearth.com Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), menopausal hormone therapy, estrogen therapy, and progesterone are often discussed in relation to the “10-year window.” Still, many women ask if they can start HRT in their 60s, 70s, or 80s for menopause symptoms. Women who went through menopause between 2002 and 2022 were frequently denied hormone therapy due to fear, misinformation, and outdated medical guidance about menopause treatment and women’s health. In this video, we explain HRT timing, late-start hormone therapy options, menopause care for older women, and what the latest research says about who may still benefit.
