Menopause hormone therapy counseling support

Purpose

What this website is for

This website is designed to support shared decision-making conversations about menopause hormone therapy. It organizes evidence into patient priorities, risk counseling sections, and treatment comparison notes so clinicians can review key points efficiently.

It is not a prescribing guideline, diagnostic tool, or replacement for clinician judgment. Treatment decisions should consider the patient’s symptoms, baseline risk, contraindications, preferences, route, dose, duration, and follow-up plan.

Creator

Creator of this site

My name is Dr. Kristine Ma and I'm a family doctor with an interest in peri-menopause/menopause and women's health in general.

I created this website for patients and clinicians to help guide decision making for hormone therapy choices as the information can get overwhelming, even for physicians.

Please send me feedback through the form below whether it's negative or positive :)
