The FDA Finally Sets the Record Straight on HRT

After more than two decades of fear and confusion, the FDA has taken action. In an important step, they removed the long-standing black box warning on hormone replacement therapy for menopause. That warning, based on a flawed 2002 study, has discouraged millions of women from treatment that could have helped them.

“Millions of women were denied hormone therapy because of a false belief that it increased the risk of breast cancer death. Clinical trials do not support that association.”

This shift signals a new era where women can access menopause care confidently and without stigma.

HRT: Backed by Science, Supporting Women in Atlantic Beach

When hormone therapy is started within 10 years of menopause, women may see:

• 50 percent reduction in cardiovascular risks
• Up to 60 percent fewer osteoporotic fractures
• Lower risk of cognitive decline
• No increased breast cancer mortality

If you live in 32233, 32250, or nearby areas and want to be proactive about your long-term health, this is the ideal time to review your hormone care.

Already on HRT? The FDA Supports Your Decision

Women currently receiving hormone therapy at RegenCen Atlantic Beach can feel validated knowing their care reflects the latest science. Many from Neptune Beach, Nocatee, and Intracoastal West pushed through outdated advice to feel well again. That decision is now backed by the FDA.

Why Women Trust RegenCen Atlantic Beach Menopause and Hormone Clinic

Not every doctor is trained in menopause care, and FDA policy doesn’t replace clinical experience. RegenCen hormone and menopause clinics offer a different approach:

• In-person Menopause Certified Providers and hormone experts in Northeastern Florida who are passionate about women’s health and up to date on hormone research and regenerative health options.
• Hormone replacement options including hormone pellets and topical hormone creams or gels.
• Perimenopause treatment. Testosterone replacement and hormone balancing for perimenopause symptoms like weight gain, trouble sleeping, brain fog, and night sweats.
• Menopause treatment. Going through the change? RegenCen menopause experts can help you get relief from hot flashes, fatigue, urinary symptoms, hair loss, and the dozens of common symptoms of menopause.
• Post menopause hormone replacement. Even if you’re years beyond menopause, HRT and other regenerative treatments at RegenCen relieve persistent symptoms of estrogen depletion like vaginal dryness, chronic UTIs, hot flashes, fatigue, and weight gain.
• Support for both menopause symptom relief and long-term prevention of diseases associated with hormone deficiencies like cognitive decline, osteoporosis, cardiac events, and strokes.

Our mission is to be your primary care for optimal aging.

Patients travel from Duval County and Intracoastal West to get care at RegenCen hormone and menopause clinic in Atlantic Beach because our menopause and hormone experts value long-term relationships, work in conjunction with primary care and concierge physicians, and we offer treatments in conjunction with hormone therapy like vaginal rejuvenation, weight loss programs, and NAD+.
