@malaikawoodsmd: If you’re gaining weight in your 40s or 50s while eating less, it’s not “just calories.” Perimenopause shifts estrogen, testosterone, cortisol, insulin, and muscle, and that changes how your body stores fat and uses energy. Your body is not betraying you. It’s transitioning, and with the right support, you can feel like yourself again, and often even better than before. #FunctionalMedicine #Perimenopause #HormoneBalance #Menopause

I was on Zepbound before hrt (I had no idea what perimenopause even was at that point) and after I added hrt I really noticed a difference. I got all of the perimenopause gain off now. It's absolutely insane how much we go through and how little guidance most of us have. The FDA really needs to get on it with guidelines for testosterone, so many providers won't even talk about it.

India Ramey :
My Dr. refused to test progesterone because she said it fluctuates so much, it is impossible to tell where it is and just gave me progesterone. I don’t want to take something with it knowing I need it.
