Hormone Therapy Decoded: Black Box Warning Removal

In this episode, Dr. Amy sits down with Shauna Sandford, ARNP and women’s hormone specialist, to break down what every woman should know about hormone therapy—especially in light of the recent removal of the FDA black box warning on systemic estrogen products.

Together we explore the research, the misconceptions, and the practical guidance for women seeking hormonal balance at midlife and beyond.

🌿 Topics We Cover:

Why the black box warning was removed & what it means for patient safety

The difference between bioidentical vs. synthetic hormones

Understanding estrogen, progesterone & synthetic progestins

How to separate myths from evidence-based facts

When HRT is appropriate, who benefits most, and what labs matter

Why individualized care is key—not a one-size-fits-all approach

This episode brings clarity, science, and empowering information for women navigating menopause, perimenopause, or simply seeking hormonal optimization with confidence.
