#140: How HRT & Testosterone Changed my Life & Training


Listen Later

In honor of Menopause Awareness Month, I’m sharing my personal story of perimenopause and hormone replacement therapy.

This is part two of my two-part series on HRT. If you haven’t yet listened to part one, Perimenopause and HRT my personal story (episode 139), please start there first.

In this episode, I talk about what it was really like — the symptoms I experienced, how life changed after starting treatment, and how hormones have affected my strength training, body composition, energy, motivation, and overall quality of life.

This isn’t a medical lecture, and I’m not selling anything. My hope is that if you’re struggling with similar symptoms, this helps you realize you’re not alone — and that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

You don’t have to just live with it or accept that “this is how life has to be.” There are options, there is help, and you can feel like yourself again.


Enjoy the episode
