What Really Happened at the FDA Menopause Panel - Fempower Health | A Women's Health Podcast

The FDA finally held a hearing on menopause—and it was long overdue. Georgie Kovacs breaks down the powerful expert testimony, the systemic failures, and why this matters for every woman navigating midlife care. In this grounded recap, you’ll learn: • Why the FDA’s black box warning on vaginal estrogen may be misleading • The difference between systemic and local hormone absorption—and why it matters • How testosterone access for women remains limited despite clear clinical need • What experts like Dr. James Simon, Dr. Heather Hirsch, and Dr. Rachel Rubin said that might change the game • One big thing missing: progesterone.
