New evidence, as released in the April 2024 edition of "Menopause" has demonstrated several major health benefits of HRT for women over the age of 65. These include a REDUCTION in rates of breast, ovarian, endometrial, colorectal and lung cancers, as well as a decrease in cardiovascular events, AMI, AFib, and even dementia.
