Approaches to Menopause & Hormone Therapy
Hormones aren't the problem. Misunderstanding them is. On this episode of BackTable Women’s Health, Dr. Karen Toubi sits down with Dr. James Simon to discuss menopause, sexual medicine, and his career journey from early IVF research to treating aging women. They also unpack his Green Journal paper with Dr. Barbara Levy, challenging common misconceptions about hormone therapy and explaining why treatment should be individualized because not all estrogens and progestogens are the same.
