Episode notes

In this episode, Tara clarifies the limitations of using herbs, supplements, and phytoestrogens as alternatives to natural bioidentical hormones in alleviating perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.

She explains that while some herbal remedies may offer temporary relief for certain symptoms, they do not provide the comprehensive protective benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) using natural bioidentical hormones.

Tara emphasizes the importance of informed decision-making regarding HRT and provides resources, such as her course "HRT Made Simple," to guide women through understanding the significant health benefits of hormone therapy for long-term well-being.

Here are three key takeaways from our discussion:

Bioidentical Hormones vs. AlternativesWhile herbs and phytoestrogens might offer some relief from symptoms, they don't replace the health-protective benefits of natural bioidentical hormones, which are vital for mitigating risks associated with heart disease, osteoporosis, and more.
The Importance of Educating YourselfMany doctors aren't fully equipped to guide you through hormone replacement therapy because they don't receive extensive training in medical school. My course, HRT Made Simple, provides you with simplified, evidence-based knowledge, empowering you to make informed decisions alongside your healthcare provider.
Rethinking "Natural" MenopauseLiving longer means facing extended periods of hormone deficiency post-menopause. As we’re at a higher risk for serious health conditions in these years, reconsidering the idea of natural menopause is essential. Embrace modern medicine’s role in improving your quality of life.
