#139: Perimenopause and HRT My Personal Story


Listen Later

For years, I had no idea what was happening to me. I was falling apart, and had no idea why.

I thought this was just how life was when your marriage wasn’t great and you were juggling kids and a demanding job.

I knew I was going through menopause, but neither I, nor the doctors who were treating me, realized that my changing hormones were wreaking havoc on my life.

In this episode, I’m sharing my real story of how that unfolded: how I spent years in the dark, struggling with symptoms I didn’t understand, and how things finally began to turn around with HRT (though that did not always go so smoothly either!).

I’m sharing this in hopes that at least one person will recognize their own struggles in my story, and get help faster than I did.
