#67 I'm on HRT… So Why Don't I Feel Better? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Conversation Takeaways Being on HRT and still not feeling like yourself doesn't necessarily mean your hormone therapy isn't working. Look at what improved and what didn't. Your hormones don't live in a vacuum. Sleep, stress, thyroid function, metabolic health, nutrition, muscle and recovery can all influence how you feel. Sometimes HRT needs to be reassessed. Other times, persistent symptoms are telling us it's time to widen the lens. You don't have to choose between HRT and supporting the rest
#66 I Have All the Perimenopause Symptoms…So Why Are My Labs Normal? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What You'll Take Away From This Conversation Why a "normal" hormone test doesn't necessarily rule out perimenopause. Why a lab result is a snapshot, while your body is the whole movie.

#64 Before You Ask For HRT, Can We Talk About Your Life? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hormone therapy has finally become part of the mainstream women's health conversation, and that is a good thing. After decades of women feeling dismissed or undertreated, more women are asking questions, advocating for themselves, and learning about treatment options during perimenopause and menopause. But another problem may be emerging. Women are increasingly arriving at healthcare appointments already convinced that every symptom they are experiencing is hormonal and that estrogen or progeste
#63 Your Body Is Smarter Than You Think Part Three: Your Body Has Been Responding to the Life You've Been Living (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this final episode of the Your Body Is Smarter Than You Think series, Michele Broad brings together the ideas explored throughout the first two conversations and introduces the philosophy that now guides all of her teaching. If your body is intelligent, and if your hormones don't live in a vacuum, then the next question becomes: What has your body been responding to all along? Drawing on nearly thirty years of caring for women, Michele explains why your biology cannot be separated from the li
