The SHOCKING Truth About Women Nobody Tells You

About this video

83% of women who should be prescribed hormone therapy are not getting it. A $14 cream that prevents urinary tract infections, improves bladder health, reduces pain, and can save elderly women's lives is being systematically under-prescribed because of a study that was catastrophically misinterpreted over 20 years ago. Dr. Rachel Rubin, one of only 80 doctors in the United States trained to treat both male and female sexual health, walks through the five stages of a woman's hormonal life and explains what is going wrong at nearly every stage. She starts with the menstrual cycle and how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone fluctuate throughout. She explains that testosterone, a hormone most people associate with men, is critical for women's libido and begins declining in the 30s, a decade before most women or their doctors start paying attention. She then reveals the medical disaster that shaped an entire generation of women's healthcare. In the late 1990s, the Women's Health Initiative, a billion-dollar study funded by the NIH, was stopped early. At a press conference, researchers announced that hormone therapy caused cardiovascular disease and breast cancer. Overnight, a multi-billion dollar industry collapsed. Women were told to throw their hormones in the garbage. The problem: the study didn't actually say that. The same authors published a correction in 2025 confirming that below age 70, the type of hormone therapy studied showed no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or stroke. But by then, an entire generation of medical students had been trained without learning how to prescribe it. Only 17% of women who should be offered hormone therapy are currently receiving prescriptions.
