Thinking about starting HRT—or already on it but not seeing results?
Here’s the truth: HRT isn’t a magic fix if your body isn’t ready.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the 5 things you need to do BEFORE starting hormone therapy so it actually works with your body—not against it.
We’ll cover gut health, liver detox, blood sugar, stress, and the key labs your doctor probably isn’t running.
If you want HRT to work the way it’s supposed to, this is where you start.
