202. How to have a productive follow-up visit and building the Collaborative!

What the Lancet got (really) wrong// Have we "Overmedicalized" menopause? Hardly. However, the Lancet authors argue for a 'new' approach to menopause and aging women, stating that an over-simplified narrative of menopause as a health problem to be solved by replacing hormones is not based on evidence and deflects attention from the need for substantial societal shifts in how menopause, and midlife/older women in general, are viewed and treated. Let's break this down because the lancet got it (very) wrong my friends.

201. What the Lancet got (really) wrong

There isn't a woman I wouldn't prescribe HRT for // For the last few decades we have made hormone therapy way more complicated than it needs to be. Yes, there is science. True - one size does not fit all. However, I believe that there is no other medication that increases both longevity and quality of life other than HRT.
