Energized with Dr. Mariza 404: Do Women Need to Wait Till Menopause to Begin Hormone Replacement Therapy? /w Esther Blum
Having a full buffet of options at your disposal during perimenopause and menopause is the best chance you will have of a successful hormonal transition. While I fully believe that we need to lean heavily on natural solutions like nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle rituals for optimal results and longevity, I also believe in being open to every tool available, including bioidentical hormones.
