Is Hormone Therapy Safe
Yes. When hormone therapy is prescribed and monitored by licensed medical providers, it is considered safe for most patients. Modern bioidentical hormone therapy uses individualized dosing, appropriate testing, and ongoing monitoring to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
Recent updates from the FDA clarify that many of the original warnings were based on outdated research. Today’s guidance provides a more accurate understanding of when hormone therapy is appropriate and how timing and personalization matter.
