Facelift prep, hormone therapy choices, and the real side effects no one wants to say out loud. Chalene takes you behind the scenes on stopping estrogen before surgery, switching from injections to testosterone cream, and testing an estrogen patch, plus how progesterone keeps her sleep on track. She also flags a Neutrogena makeup wipe recall and why telehealth shortcuts around GLP-1s can backfire. Consider this a candid pre-op diary with zero politics and full transparency, plus details on the documentary she is filming of the entire recovery. If you are curious about perimenopause symptoms, HRT delivery methods, and GLP-1 risk conversations, this one will save you time and stress.
