    398: The Great Menopause Myth with Wise & Well
    Oct 1 2024

    Ever wonder if hormone replacement therapy (HRT) really causes cancer? Or why there’s so much confusion around bioidentical hormones? In this episode, I’m sitting down with Maria and Kristen from Wise and Well to bust some of the biggest menopause myths out there. Have you heard about the flawed WHI study that sparked fear around HRT? Curious about how progesterone and testosterone play a bigger role in your health than you might think?

This is about really understanding how HRT impacts your health and learning how to advocate for yourself with the right doctors. If you’ve ever had questions about menopause or hormones, this is the conversation you don’t want to miss. Watch the episode on YouTube here! And don’t forget to check out Maria and Kristen’s book, The Great Menopause Myth: The Truth on Mastering Midlife Hormonal Mayhem, Beating Uncomfortable Symptoms, and Aging to Thrive.
