In this episode, I am asking a question I get daily in my practice from women taking HRT: do I need to be cycling my progesterone? Or is OK to just take it every day? How about estrogen, does that need to be cycled too? It's a good question and one that experts do not agree on. As I always say though, HRT can't be one size fits all and it's worth understanding why cycling might be better for you - or at least another option! I'm sure you have a friend with this same question, so be sure to forward this episode.
