In this episode, we covered:

• Ramifications of low hormones
• Health benefits of replacing hormones
• Different terms for hormone replacement therapy
• Difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones
• Fears about hormone replacement therapy 
• Women’s Health Initiative Study 
• Contraindications for HRT
• Over-the-counter hormones vs. prescription
• FDA-approved vs. compounded

In last week’s episode, I shared my journey with hormone replacement therapy and why I use it. If you haven’t listened to that, I highly recommend you go back and do so. 

Today, I want to dive a bit deeper into hormone replacement therapy, because there’s a lot of controversy around it.
