Hormones are crucial in shaping your overall well-being, affecting everything from mood and energy to sleep quality. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) has become a popular “natural” option for addressing hormonal imbalances. But what exactly sets BHRT apart from traditional hormone therapies, and how can it benefit you?

In this episode, I sit down with BHRT expert Donna White, who shares her journey through hormone imbalances and her expertise in BHRT. Donna provides an in-depth look at how BHRT works, how it differs from conventional treatments, and the potential benefits for managing symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and more.

Tune in to understand BHRT, explore its benefits, and learn what factors to consider when deciding if it’s the right choice for your health.
