DOVER, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 29, 2025--

Telehealth company Henry Meds, known for its innovation in telehealth medicine and commitment to patient-centric care, announced today that it will now provide healthcare to patients suffering with symptoms associated with menopause and perimenopause.

“Our patients will benefit from our personalized care, expertise, experience, and the growing amounts of scientific data showing a clear benefit from hormone replacement therapy to provide relief from the daily and long-term impacts of menopause and perimenopause,” said Dr. Steven Peacock, Chief Medical Officer, Henry Meds. “As leaders in the telehealth field, Henry Meds healthcare providers meet virtually with each patient to understand their symptoms and concerns, provide complimentary testing if appropriate and help determine the best therapeutic approach for each individual patient.”

For many patients, the decrease in hormone levels caused by perimenopause and menopause lead to symptoms that impact their daily lives and can also lead to long-term health problems. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can offer significant relief from these symptoms.

“It’s not just about the hot-flashes and daily symptoms when hormone production decreases in a patient’s body,” said Ana DeRosales MD, internal medicine and NAMS certified physician. “We know that living with a depletion of estrogen, progesterone and other hormones can lead to long-term health problems, from painful sex and osteoporosis to cardiovascular disease and joint pain. Working with a patient to find the best therapies for menopause and perimenopause through bioidentical therapies including progesterone, estrogen and other hormone replacement therapies is a well-studied and effective way to help patients find relief and long-term health benefits.”

Henry Meds continues to revolutionize healthcare through its telehealth platform and commitment to patient-centric care. Henry Meds healthcare providers offer one-on-one care to patients across therapeutic areas including HRT, weight management, testosterone replacement therapy and erectile dysfunction.

Henry Meds continues its innovative research and development to further empower individuals to access quality healthcare solutions that are both convenient and accessible.

Thousands of nurses go on strike at several major New York City hospitals

NEW YORK (AP) — Thousands of nurses in three hospital systems in New York City went on strike Monday after negotiations through the weekend failed to yield breakthroughs in their contract disputes.

The strike was taking place at The Mount Sinai Hospital and two of its satellite campuses, with picket lines forming. The other affected hospitals are NewYork-Presbyterian and Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx.

About 15,000 nurses are involved in the strike, according to New York State Nurses Association.

“After months of bargaining, management refused to make meaningful progress on core issues that nurses have been fighting for: safe staffing for patients, healthcare benefits for nurses, and workplace violence protections,” the union said in a statement issued Monday. “Management at the richest hospitals in New York City are threatening to discontinue or radically cut nurses’ health benefits.”

The strike, which comes during a severe flu season, could potentially force the hospitals to transfer patients, cancel procedures or divert ambulances. It could also put a strain on city hospitals not involved in the contract dispute, as patients avoid the medical centers hit by the strike.

The hospitals involved have been hiring temporary nurses to try and fill the labor gap during the walkout, and said in a statement during negotiations that they would “do whatever is necessary to minimize disruptions.” Montefiore posted a message assuring patients that appointments would be kept.

“NYSNA’s leaders continue to double down on their $3.6 billion in reckless demands, including nearly 40% wage increases, and their troubling proposals like demanding that a nurse not be terminated if found to be compromised by drugs or alcohol while on the job," Montefiore spokesperson Joe Solmonese said Monday after the strike had started. "We remain resolute in our commitment to providing safe and seamless care, regardless of how long the strike may last.”

New York-Presbyterian accused the union of staging a strike to “create disruption,” but said in a statement that it has taken steps to ensure patients receive the care they need.

"We’re ready to keep negotiating a fair and reasonable contract that reflects our respect for our nurses and the critical role they play, and also recognizes the challenging realities of today’s healthcare environment,” the statement said.

The work stoppage is occurring at multiple hospitals simultaneously, but each medical center is negotiating with the union independently. Several other hospitals across the city and in its suburbs reached deals in recent days to avert a possible strike.

The nurses’ demands vary by hospital, but the major issues include staffing levels and workplace safety. The union says hospitals have given nurses unmanageable workloads.

Nurses also want better security measures in the workplace, citing incidents like a an incident last week, when a man with a sharp object barricaded himself in a Brooklyn hospital room and was then killed by police.

The union also wants limitations on hospitals’ use of artificial intelligence.

The nonprofit hospitals involved in the negotiations say they’ve been working to improve staffing levels, but say the union’s demands overall are too costly.

Nurses voted to authorize the strike last month.

Both New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and Mayor Zohran Mamdani had expressed concern about the possibility of the strike. As the strike deadline neared, Mamdani urged both sides to keep negotiating and reach a deal that “both honors our nurses and keeps our hospitals open.”

“Our nurses kept this city alive through its hardest moments. Their value is not negotiable,” Mamdani said.

State Attorney General Letitia James voiced similar support, saying "nurses put their lives on the line every day to keep New Yorkers healthy. They should never be forced to choose between their own safety, their patients’ well-being, and a fair contract.”

The last major nursing strike in the city was only three years ago, in 2023. That work stoppage, at Mount Sinai and Montefiore, was short, lasting three days. It resulted in a deal raising pay 19% over three years at those hospitals.

It also led to promised staffing improvements, though the union and hospitals now disagree about how much progress has been made, or whether the hospitals are retreating from staffing guarantees.
