HRT Quick Start: The Instructions Your Doctor Forgot - Zora Benhamou
About this episode
Did your doctor hand you a prescription for hormones for menopause with like zero instructions on how to actually use it? Are you standing in your bathroom now wondering where the patch goes, how much gel is a "pump," or whether you're even doing this right?
We cover:
-
The one thing to set up with your doctor NOW so you're never stuck waiting 3 months for a simple answer
-
Patch, gel, spray or cream: where each one goes and the absorption trick most women miss
-
Why some women feel worse on progesterone, and the simple switch that fixes it
-
How I use all three hormones for $40 a month
