Episode #45: Starting HRT, Old Fears, and What Bioidentical Really Means
Is your period suddenly unpredictable? Are your joints aching for no clear reason? In this episode, Dr. Cat walks you through what actually happens in the first few weeks of starting HRT, why bloating and water retention are normal (and temporary), and how estrogen and testosterone work together behind the scenes. She also explains the context behind the decades-old research that shaped how many women think about HRT and breaks down what bioidentical hormones actually are and how they differ from other forms.
