http://www.healthshow.org/ – For a lot of years, women were routinely given hormone replacement therapy to relieve the hot flashes, dryness and other symptoms of menopause. Then along came the Women's Health Initiative report in 2002 on the risks of hormones and that pretty much put an end to that routine part. On this week's Health Show, we'll talk to a pair of film makers who think that report was a big mistake.
We'll also hear about new ways of helping people who suffer frequent should dislocations. And a report on artists and inventors who think a good night's sleep is way overrated.
