This week, I’m sharing a personal journey that led me to change my mind about hormone replacement therapy (HRT).   I used to have a strong bias toward natural medicine and was hesitant to consider HRT, but a synchronistic  experience opened my mind to new possibilities. It's not about choosing between natural and mainstream medicine; it's about what serves our well-being.    So, let's have this conversation as if we're on a walk together, chatting about the ups and downs of perimenopause and menopause.   Discover why I changed my mind about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and how it can impact your midlife experience.   I delve into the concept of naturalistic bias and how my own preconceptions about mainstream and natural medicine shifted when I realized that it's not about choosing one over the other, but finding what genuinely serves my well-being.   I'll dive into why I initially hesitated to take HRT, what changed my mind, and how it has impacted my life.   We'll also tackle some common misconceptions and biases around HRT and explore how we can embrace both natural and mainstream medicine to thrive in midlife.   So, grab a cup of tea or put on your walking shoes, and let's dive into why I initially hesitated to take HRT, what changed my mind, and how it has impacted my life.   Got questions or insights to share from your own menopause journey?
