www.cjcopen.ca In Memoriam: Dominique Vervoort, MD, MPH, MBA (1994-2026) Dr Dominique Vervoort died on February 16, 2026, at St Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, from metastatic melanoma. He was 31 years old. In his short life, Dominique introduced the concept of global... Today the Black Box was removed from ALL Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT). For transvaginal, I think this is reasonable, but what do we actually know about contemporary doses of transdermal & oral #MHT? I also think the statements being made are doing a huge disservice to women. This is NOT a win for women. A win would be funding a trial that studies women on contemporary doses of transdermal & oral MHT.
The statement by Makary that "With the exception of vaccines or antibiotics, there's no medication that can improve the health of women on a population level more than hormone replacement therapy," is not based on fact. We just don’t know and certainly any statement on cardiac safety remains unknown for contemporary doses of transdermal and oral MHT
I want to care for women using evidence based treatments. We have seen by many examples of what can happen when we don’t study women. Let’s not do this again.
