Memorable Quotes:
“The reality is hormone replacement of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in women, particularly early in the transition to menopause, is favorable not only in cognitive function, but in mood. And that stabilizing those hormones and stabilizing them long term is going to be valuable.” – Betty Murray
“Our mental health crisis, particularly in the younger populations, is at a tipping point, right? And the reality is that maybe some of the mental health issues that we’re having are hormonal things that are happening with these poor young girls, and they’re being manipulated with birth control, and it’s leading to increased mood problems, not improvement.” – Betty Murray
