Lucas presents evidence from a study comparing the effects of estradiol and estriol on bone mineral density, highlighting the superior efficacy of estradiol. He emphasizes the need for evidence-based practices in hormone therapy and warns against the misconceptions surrounding the safety and effectiveness of different estrogen forms.Study Links: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17524997/
