Dr. Brooke Show #457 HRT + Joint Pain, Irregular Bleeding, Indigestion & More

Often, when symptoms or side effects arise on HRT, the immediate reaction is to adjust the dosage. In this Q&A episode, I cover what irregular bleeding, GI symptoms like nausea and joint pain might indicate when you're on HRT and options to feel better that go beyond just a bump up or step down of your dose.   For more info on how I can help you, visit my site BetterByDrBrooke.   Resources mentioned in this episode: Episode #426 - Why Some Women Can't Tolerate Progesterone Episode #441 - Why Your Progesterone to Estrogen Ratio Matters Episode #451 - Using Birth Control Instead of HRT in Perimenopause   Grab the Midlife Is More Than HRT guide free right here if, like me, midlife didn't feel quite like you expected.
