 You know that feeling of "something's off, but my labs are 'normal' and everyone keeps telling me it's just aging"? We're not doing that here. In this episode, I'm joined by menopause specialist Dr. Ashley Alexis to answer the HRT questions women are actually asking: from breast cancer fears and clot risk to migraines, vaginal dryness, sex drive, and starting hormones "late" in your 60s and 70s. We break down the difference between oral vs transdermal estrogen, why estradiol is "that girl", how to think about progesterone (Prometrium vs compounded, oral vs vaginal), and when it makes sense to bring in testosterone and DHEA for energy, libido, and muscle. If you've ever been told you "can't" take estrogen because of blood pressure, migraines, family history of breast cancer, or because you're "too old" to start, this conversation is going to give you language, context, and confidence to go back to your provider and ask better questions. Dr. Ashley Alexis is a licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor specializing in menopause care. Trained at Bastyr University San Diego, she helps women navigate perimenopause and menopause using evidence-based, root-cause approaches that support their long-term health, clarity, and wellbeing. 🎧 Episode 31: Dr. Ashley Alexis, ND: The Myths, the Science, and the Real Story of HRT Tune in.
