Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has long been shown to alleviate menopausal symptoms, increase women’s life expectancy, and lower the risk of heart disease, Alzheimer’s, osteoporosis, and colon cancer. However, the Women’s Health Initiative’s flawed research stating that HRT raises the risk of breast cancer has caused many women and much of the medical community to abandon the treatment. In Estrogen Matters (2021), social psychologist Carol Tavris and medical oncologist Avrum Bluming debunk this widespread myth. They advocate for a reevaluation of the risks and benefits of HRT, empowering women to make choices supported by evidence rather than misinformation.
