Yes . . . and this situation is one of the most common things I hear from women over 60. Age alone is not a contraindication for hormone therapy according to current evidence. Step 7 (Long-Term Health and Staying on HRT) in the roadmap specifically addresses what the research says about hormone use after 65 — including bone, brain, and heart protection. You'll come away knowing what questions to ask and how to push back if the only reason you've been given is your age.

Yes, and this is one of the most common situations I see. Steps 3 and 4 in the roadmap specifically address what to do when you're on hormones and still don't feel right: how to think about dose adjustments, what different lingering symptoms might mean, and how to have a more focused conversation with your provider about making changes. The program won't tell you exactly what dose to take, but it will help you understand what questions to ask and how to evaluate your options.

This roadmap presents evidence-based information about hormones and breast cancer risk, including a clear-eyed look at the studies that shaped the conversation, and where those studies have been misunderstood. It's educational content, not medical advice. If you have a personal history of breast cancer or significant health concerns, you should involve your oncologist or physician in any decisions about hormone therapy. But understanding the evidence, including the nuances the headlines don't cover, is always valuable.

The roadmap specifically addresses how to advocate for yourself with providers who are hesitant or dismissive about HRT, and that's a very common situation. I also have relationships with hormone optimization specialists across the US, and I'll do my best to help connect you with someone in your area if you need it.

Every Wednesday at 1:00 PM Mountain Time, Steve hosts a live group session for Tier 2 members. You can submit questions in advance or ask them live. Sessions are recorded and replays are available, so you never miss an answer even if you can't join live. It's not a classroom — it's a conversation. Topics range from reading your own lab results to navigating a skeptical provider to understanding what 'optimization' actually means for your situation. The Q&A runs for 8 weeks, giving you focused live support through the full 7-step program.

Pharmacists spend years studying how drugs and hormones work at a molecular level: delivery methods, metabolism, dosing, interactions. I've also spent most of my career teaching and counseling patients about hormones over the pharmacy counter. Pharmacists sit in a different place in the healthcare system than prescribers do. We see patterns across thousands of patients and hundreds of providers. That vantage point lets me explain the 'why' behind hormone therapy in a way most courses don't, and it means I can translate the science without the agenda or the oversimplification.

The Menopause Solution presents the evidence about long-term hormone use, including what we know about bone, brain, heart, and cancer risk over time, and helps you think through what's right for your situation. The goal is for you to be able to make that decision from a place of information, not fear or confusion. What you ultimately decide, with your provider, is your call. It's also true that whether you choose to stay on hormones the rest of your life or stop them at some point . . . there are risks either way.

It's designed to give you confidence in that situation, which is more common than you might think. I hear from women every week who were told "No" to hormones for years based on outdated interpretations of the 2002 Women's Health Initiative study, or whose providers want to reduce or stop their HRT even when they're thriving on it. Step 3 (The HRT Evidence Trial) and Step 5 (Working With Your Provider Without Feeling Dismissed) of the roadmap specifically address this. You'll learn what the research actually says, where the common misinterpretations come from, and how to have a productive, evidence-based conversation with a resistant or cautious provider, so you're not arguing in the dark.

Tier 1 gives you full access to all 7 steps of the roadmap: video lessons, downloadable guides, and reference materials, at your own pace with lifetime access. Tier 2 adds 8 weeks of live group Q&A with Steve, every Wednesday at 1:00 PM Mountain Time. If you're the kind of person who learns better with a real expert available to answer your specific questions, Tier 2 is worth the extra investment. Also included in Tier 2 is access to a private Menopause Solution Community where you can connect with like-minded women experiencing the same struggles you have. If you prefer to go at your own pace without the live and community component, Tier 1 gives you everything you need.
