Misconceptions about hormonal fluctuations and estrogen blockers

Hormonal fluctuations when starting hormones may cause sensitive nipples and water retention, but they typically go away over time and should not be a reason to take estrogen blockers.

Advising clients to come off estrogen blockers has resulted in them feeling better, as these blockers can have negative effects on their health and well-being.
