How Oestrogen Impacts Long Term Health

Oestrogen Matters!

By menopause we have around 2% of the oestrogen left in our bodies that we did before perimenopause (that’s less than men have!).

This means we’re exposed to a greater risk of cardiovascular disease, dementia, depression and osteoporosis.

That is terrifying and helps to explain why women may have a longer life span, but they don’t have a longer ‘health-span’ than men.

Oestrogen isn’t just a ‘nice to have’ it’s a vital hormone for a healthy (and happy) life!

So I urge you to explore with you’re health-care provider whether HRT is an option for you. 

With love
