The FDA Reverses Long-Standing Warning on Hormone Therapy: What It Means for East Lansing Women
Women in the Greater Lansing region are finally getting the clarity they deserve. At RegenCen, the trusted menopause and hormone clinic in East Lansing, our team helps women address frustrating symptoms like hot flashes, energy crashes, sleep issues, weight gain, mood instability, and brain fog.

We serve patients throughout 48823, 48864, and the broader Mid Michigan region with personalized hormone care that helps restore balance and confidence.
RegenCen was founded by Gustav Lo, MD after more than three decades in primary care. He recognized that women were left without real solutions for hormone-related symptoms. At our East Lansing clinic, we combine expert evaluation with advanced hormone testing to understand exactly what your body needs.
Whether you are in perimenopause or well into post menopause, our bioidentical hormone pellet therapy, topical hormones, and oral options are tailored with precision.

FDA Removes Old Hormone Therapy Warning After New Review of Evidence
The FDA recently announced a major change to the way menopause hormone therapy is labeled. After reviewing updated medical data, they removed the black box warning that once suggested HRT increased the risk of death from breast cancer. That warning came from older, flawed interpretations of early research and prevented many women from receiving the care they needed.
In a November announcement, the FDA acknowledged what specialists have known for years. Hormone therapy, when prescribed appropriately, is safe and supports long-term wellbeing.
Hormone Therapy Supports Heart, Bone, and Brain Health in Mid Michigan Women
Starting hormone therapy within 10 years of menopause provides benefits that protect health well into the future. Women in neighborhoods like Glencairn, Bailey, and Whitehills experience:
- Lower risk of heart attack and cardiac-related death
- Better bone strength and fewer fractures
- Support for cognitive function and memory
- No increase in breast cancer mortality
If you live in East Lansing or surrounding ZIP codes like 48823, 48864, or 48912 and want to stay active and healthy as you age, hormone therapy may be the missing piece.
Already Using HRT? The FDA Supports Your Choice
Women who have trusted their instincts and continued hormone therapy now have full FDA confirmation that they made the right decision. Patients in Lansing, Haslett, and Frandor who pushed past outdated opinions can feel validated in their pursuit of better health.
If hesitation or fear has held you back, the facts are now on your side.
