#336 - What Women Over 40 Aren’t Being Told About Hormone Replacement Therapy with Jay Feldman

Thinking about HRT?Before you jump on the hormone train, especially if you’re in your 40s or 50s, PLEASE listen to this episode first.I recorded this with Jay Feldman (@jfwellness), and it’s hands down one of the most important convos I’ve had around perimenopause, menopause, and hormone therapy.Here’s what we cover (that most doctors aren’t telling you):⚠️ Why it’s progesterone, not estrogen, that crashes first⚠️ How estrogen “works” by suppressing symptoms like cortisol but at a long-term cost⚠️ The real risks of taking estrogen-only or synthetic HRT⚠️ Why testosterone therapy can backfire by converting into more estrogen⚠️ How estrogen impacts your thyroid, metabolism, and fat loss⚠️ Why progesterone (used properly) can be game-changing — but only if your foundations are in placeAnd most importantly how you can support your body naturally before considering hormone therapy.If you’re under eating, under nourished, sleeping 5 hours a night, stressed, running yourself into the ground, chugging wine on the weekend… no amount of HRT is going to fix what’s actually going on.Start with nourishment. With light. With rest. With blood sugar balance. With building muscle and getting active. Work on the foundations first!Then and only then should you consider hormone therapy.RESOURCES + LINKSRebuild Your Metabolism Method: 28 Day ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldJay Feldman @jfwellnessAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
