Dr. Kyrin Dunston | HRT 101: Is Your Hormone Dosing Method Helping You or Harming You?
Welcome to another energizing and empowering episode of The Hormone Prosperity Podcast with Dr. Kyrin! This week, we’re tackling a pressing question from our listener, Mavic, who’s confused about the various ways to dose Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
Are you wondering if that HRT pill, patch, or cream is the best choice for your body? Curious about the hidden risks of oral estradiol or why your patch might be causing skin irritation? Dr. Kyrin breaks it all down with heartfelt clarity and solid science, as she explains why the method you use to dose hormones can spell the difference between prosperity or problems for your body.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
The First Pass Effect: Find out why oral estradiol and testosterone are problematic—hint, it’s harming more than helping by overloading your liver.
Better Dosing Methods: Discover why transdermal creams are the healthier alternative to patches, and how compounded bioidentical hormones can open up new possibilities for vitality.
Progesterone Done Right: Why oral progesterone is Dr. Kyrin’s go-to method for stress relief and sleep enhancement—but only when it’s crafted properly!
Myth-Busting Mainstream HRT: Are you still trusting the advice of a general physician or weekend-trained bioidentical hormone practitioner? Learn what to look for in a credentialed HRT expert.
The all-important balance of estradiol and estriol to protect your health and happiness.
Why This Episode Matters
Hormones hold the key to midlife joy, vitality, and a stronger, healthier you—yet too many women are left confused by mainstream advice or trapped in hormonal poverty. Dr. Kyrin’s insights will help you leave behind one-size-fits-all solutions and make confident, informed decisions about your HRT treatment.
