Cortisol Face, Abby’s Pre-Eclampsia Story, & a Fresh Look at HRT

In this episode of From First Period to Last Period, Rescripted Co-Founder Abby Mercado shares her harrowing experience with pre-eclampsia — a life-threatening pregnancy complication that escalated quickly and almost cost her her life. Her story is a powerful reminder of why awareness and early intervention matter.

Been seeing “cortisol face” all over your FYP? Registered Dietitian Anna Bohnengel breaks down whether this viral term has any scientific merit. Can chronic stress actually change your appearance, or is this just wellness-world hype?

⁠Kristyn and Dr. Jenna Kahn also tackle two important (and often misunderstood) topics: the spectrum of postpartum mood disorders and the realities of miscarriage.

And finally, we dive into important research from the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) that explores how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may actually be neuroprotective for women in their early 50s. What does this mean for your brain health strategy as you age?
