  7. Are Bio-Identical Hormones Right...

Ladies, let’s get real—how are you feeling?

How are you really feeling?

If you’re dealing with fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, or aches, and feel unsure how to fix it, you’re not alone.

Does this sound familiar?

You’re constantly busy, running from one thing to the next, but inside, it feels like you’re barely staying afloat.

Burning the candle at both ends.

You might not be sleeping well, feeling irritable, or just stuck in a cycle of feeling off.

Sound familiar?

Worst of all, maybe your doctor has told you that this is all “normal” and that it’s just part of aging and going through menopause.

The Truth About “Aging” Symptoms

But here’s the thing—that’s not something you just have to accept!

Recent research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association is shaking up old ideas about hormone therapy in menopause.

Researchers have re-evaluated the results of the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study, and found that the WHI study was flawed, and that some of the risks that were identified were linked to the type of synthetic: not bio-identical, hormones that women were given back then.

The study also reported additional benefits of hormone therapy, including lower the risk of certain cancers, lower risk of heart disease, bone loss, and dementia.

The conclusion was that, for women in early menopause, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) could offer more health benefits for women, than risks.

Bio-identical hormones, which are chemically identical to those your body naturally produces, are an option for many women are now turning to, instead of synthetic hormones.

Bio-identical hormones can help with common menopause symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and even vaginal dryness and more.

Hormone Therapy and Biological Aging

Even more surprising, a separate study found that HRT could potentially slow down the process of biological aging.

That’s right—hormone therapy could do more than just manage menopause symptoms; it might actually help you feel younger, longer.

So, don’t settle for the idea that feeling bad is just part of aging.

There are solutions out there, and bio-identical hormones could be the answer.

  • Weight gain
