HRT 101: What Every Woman Over 50 Should Know


Listen Later

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is one of the most misunderstood topics in midlife women’s health.
Depending on who you ask, it’s either a miracle or a minefield. In this episode of Live Your Best Midlife, I’m breaking down what every woman over 50 should know about HRT... the facts, the myths and how to decide what’s right for you.

You’ll learn:

  • What estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone actually do

  • Why the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative study got it wrong

  • The difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones

  • When HRT can be life-changing — and when it might not be right

  • Telehealth options that make expert menopause care accessible anywhere

  • Why lifestyle habits like muscle, protein, sleep, and stress control are still the foundation

I’ll also share my favorite books that make hormones finally make sense.
