🌿 Estradiol & Longevity: A Game-Changer for Women’s Health
A major UK Biobank study found that while many prescription drugs are linked to higher mortality, estradiol—a key hormone in menopause therapy—was among the select few associated with longer lifespans.
🔬 Why it matters:
✔️ Cardiovascular Protection – Lowers heart disease risk, the #1 killer of postmenopausal women
✔️ Brain Health – Reduces Alzheimer’s risk & supports cognitive function
✔️ Metabolic Benefits – Improves insulin sensitivity & reduces visceral fat
✔️ Bone Health – Preserves bone density & lowers fracture risk
For years, menopause hormone therapy (MHT) has been debated, misunderstood, and underutilized. But research continues to show it’s not just about symptom relief—it’s about long-term health & longevity.
Are we overlooking one of the most powerful interventions for aging well? Let’s talk. 👇
