flag FDA removes black box warning on menopausal hormone therapy due to outdated data, citing new evidence of safety and benefits.

flag The FDA is removing the black box warning on estrogen-based hormone treatments for menopausal women, calling the previous warning based on outdated, flawed data from a 2002 study. flag The change reflects newer evidence showing that modern, lower-dose hormone therapies—especially when started near menopause—can reduce risks of breast cancer, heart disease, dementia, and fractures, potentially adding years to life. flag The move aims to correct long-standing misconceptions, improve access to safe treatments like vaginal estrogen creams, and support evidence-based care.
