If you're going to take hormone therapy, it's safer to take hormones that are identical to human hormones. In other words, hormones that are body-identical or bioidentical. The concept of bioidentical used to be controversial but is now conventional and mainstream.
In this episode, Lara discusses hormone therapy including:
- why the concept of bioidentical was controversial when it didn't need to be
- oral micronized progesterone for heavy periods, mood, sleep, and perimenopausal migraines, and
- some facts about body-identical estrogen (four uncontroversial things and one controversial).
