Controversy and confusion have shrouded hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—which involves using estrogen to help alleviate menopause symptoms—since a flawed 2002 study suggested it could up your risk for conditions like cancer and stroke. Though these results were refuted (among other issues, the study included mostly women several years postmenopause), they left a lingering mark in the form of a black box warning on HRT that many doctors are actively pushing to get removed.
