Ladies, let’s chat about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)—a topic that’s been swirling with confusion, myths, and more than a dash of fear for far too long. For years, concerns about breast cancer, heart disease, and blood clots have cast a shadow over HRT, largely thanks to the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study that sent everyone into a bit of a tizzy. But here’s the good news: modern research is stepping in to sweep away the gloom, revealing that HRT is far safer—and more fabulous—than we once thought.

If you’re considering Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), you might be feeling a mix of excitement and uncertainty. You’re not alone—many of my patients present feeling frustrated and struggling with symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, low or no libido, depression, anxiety,  and sleep disturbances (to name a few). They often wonder why they continue to feel unwell despite their efforts at the gym or the grocery store. They’ve seen multiple providers, but none have truly listened, leaving them searching for answers.
