In the Media: Dr. Kerstin Gustafson on Hormone Therapy for Menopause

Dr. Kerstin Gustafson (R) speaks to CTV Your Morning Vancouver, October 30, 2025

Dr. Kerstin Gustafson, medical director of BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre’s Complex Menopause Clinic, was invited to the CTV Vancouver studio to talk about menopausal hormone therapies, including key benefits and safety considerations.

The Women’s Health Research Institute would like to acknowledge that we are uninvited guests on the unceded ancestral territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lo, and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-waututh) Nations.

As a provincial research institute committed to improving the health outcomes of women, including those across the 2SLGBTQIA+ spectrum, we recognize our responsibility in the collective effort towards establishing culturally safe health care systems and services that address health inequities among Indigenous peoples, especially Indigenous women, girls, and Two-spirit peoples.

We encourage all people involved in research to read both the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action and the In Plain Sight Report, and reflect on ways we can incorporate the recommendations into our work. As we gather in spaces together, we encourage you to reflect on your positionality on these lands and your personal commitments to reconciliation.
