Cortisol increases when your body is working the way it’s supposed to in fight or flight. When hormones fluctuate or anxiety is high, this normal response can have a hair trigger and your body responds in the absence of a threat or when thinking about a threat that isn’t there at the time.

There are healthy ways to improve this:
💊 HRT
☀️ time outside
🙌 time with friends or loved ones
🧘‍♀️ deep breaths
😴 sleep
🍱 nutrition
🏃‍♀️ exercise

🚫 Stopping your rigorous workouts, which have so many benefits for brain health, cardiovascular health, bone health, mental health and weight, is not the best way to reduce cortisol levels and is not something I recommend for most people.

You’ve probably seen it: OUT OF STOCK. So what should you do?

📅 once weekly patch
💦 daily gel
🧴compounded cream
💨 daily spray
💍 vaginal ring
💊 daily oral tablet
🚫 I don’t recommend cutting your twice weekly patches because we don’t know if the estrogen is spread evenly across the patch✂️

It’s ok to have short gap but you may find symptoms return. You can continue progesterone in the meantime.

What are the pluses and minuses of each option? Let’s discuss!

It was a few weeks ago but I keep thinking about this speech by

I meet with amazing women everyday who aren’t feeling like themselves so they lose trust and forget that, even in this time of transition, they’re the same person they were before, only rising stronger and wiser. And we will get through this together!

😊 It is so exciting that hormone therapy is back in the mix and that it’s helping so many women (so many that pharmaceutical companies can’t keep up and there’s a shortage… a post for another time, since there’d never be a Vi**ra shortage). 😉

🤔 There are several reasons that someone might not be able to use hormone therapy to treat peri/menopause symptoms, including cancers, cardiovascular risks, personal choice, other familial or individualized risks, and others.

⭐️But that’s not all there is! There are many other ways to treat symptoms related hormonal changes and the accompanying symptoms, as well as prevent related conditions and complications.

‼️ That message is so important!

💜 HRT is A treatment. It’s not THE treatment!

🥰 We are happy to help you work through HRT and/or other behavior modifications, supplements, medications, lifestyle choices, etc!

🤝 We work with people with any and all contraindications or risk factors to help navigate whether HRT is a good fit, and what to do when it’s not!
