The HRT Series: Part 02 with Dr Sumayya Ebrahim

In this episode, Mandy and Tamsin sit down with Dr. Sumayya Ebrahim, gynaecologist, menopause warrior, and HRT expert, to pull apart the big fears and even bigger facts about HRT.

Like, did you know the most-feared HRT study got a lot wrong? Or that modern oestrogen might actually help prevent breast cancer, not cause it?

Expect:

• The 2002 HRT study unpacked and discussed
• Brain fog decoded: Menopause isn’t just forgetfulness, it’s a full-on neurological remodel
• Oestrogen as heart helper, bone builder, and diabetes dodger
• Twenty-three percent lower risk of diabetes for women on HRT
• Why your brain is showing up differently (not dying, just rewiring)
• How to deal with doctors who still think it’s 2002
• Estrogen Matters, Lara Mosconi, and the books that could change your mind
• Beard hairs, grey eyebrow hairs, insomnia, and the sneaky war on your confidence
• Why AI will lie to you (yes, we’re looking at you, ChatGPT)

Serious science, deeply unserious jokes.
And the universal menopause truth: If you can’t remember what you were saying, make it up with conviction.
