86 - How hormone treatments, including testosterone, reduce future diseases

86 - How hormone treatments, including testosterone, reduce future diseases

Hormone treatments are often seen as a treatment to help with symptoms, but many clinicians still do not understand how they can improve our future health too.

This week, Dr Louise Newson is joined by physician, endocrinologist and longevity expert Dr Florence Comite to explore why balancing hormones is about far more than managing symptoms. Together they discuss how hormones influence every organ in the body, why healthcare should focus more on preventing diseases than treating them and why personalised medicine is key to helping people live healthier for longer.

Florence explains why the hormones estradiol, progesterone and testosterone are so important for brain, heart, bone and muscle health, why testosterone starts declining long before menopause, and how understanding an individual’s unique biology can transform the way we approach ageing.


Together, Louise and Florence discuss:

  • Why balancing hormones can reduce the risk of future disease
  • The differences between bioidentical and synthetic hormone treatments
  • Why testosterone is important throughout a woman’s life, not just after menopause
  • The lasting negative impacts of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study
  • Why prevention and precision medicine should be the future of healthcare.


This conversation challenges the traditional approach to medicine and offers a powerful reminder that optimising hormones isn’t just about feeling better today, it’s about investing in your long-term health.
