FDA Corrects the Record on Hormone Therapy
Stuart M. Diamond, MD, FACS & Noelle Diamond, RD Lead the National Response with Equilux™

Philadelphia, PA — July 17, 2025 — In a long-overdue move, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration is correcting decades of public misunderstanding surrounding hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Today’s expert panel addresses one of the most consequential misinterpretations in women’s health history: the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study. Contrary to the widespread fear it sparked, the WHI did not find a statistically significant increase in breast cancer mortality related to HRT. But misinformation spread rapidly. HRT prescriptions plummeted—and millions of women were left to suffer untreated symptoms and long-term health consequences.

Now, the FDA is setting the record straight—and a new generation of health leaders is stepping in to modernize care. Join the FDA’s expert panel on hormone therapy reform.

National Response Led by Stuart M. Diamond, MD, FACS & Noelle Diamond, RD

At the forefront of this shift are Stuart M. Diamond, MD, FACS, board-certified urologist, founder of the Center for Advanced Urology, and a Top Physician recognized by South Jersey Magazine; and Noelle Diamond, RD, registered dietitian and hormone optimization specialist. Together, they co-founded NDA Medical Spa™ and created Equilux™ – Unlock Your Biology, a modern at-home hormone optimization program designed for real-life longevity care.

“We built Equilux™ because people deserve more than symptom relief—they deserve clarity, data, and proactive tools to live better, longer,” said Noelle Diamond, RD, Co-Founder of NDA Medical Spa™ and Co-Creator of Equilux™.

“As a urologist, I’ve seen firsthand how hormone decline affects every system—from libido and cognition to bone and metabolic health,” said Stuart M. Diamond, MD, FACS. “The science has moved forward. It’s time the care model does too.”
