TRT is everywhere these days.
Swipe through Instagram or your inbox and someone is promising more muscle, better performance, boosted mood. Sounds great… right?
Here’s the reality:
👉 Muscle gain? Maybe 1-2 lbs.
👉 Strength? Doesn’t change.
👉 Metabolic health? Slightly better with that extra muscle.
But here’s where it gets tricky—especially for women:
If you don’t know how your body metabolizes androgens, you can end up with unwanted side effects:
⚡ Acne
⚡ Weight gain
⚡ Anxiety
⚡ Hair growth where you don’t want it
TRT can be a powerful tool, for the right person, at the right time, with the right strategy.
But “low T” is often a symptom of bigger system issues (gut, adrenals, detox, insulin)—not just an age or perimenopause problem.
In my practice? I rarely start with HRT.
We dig deeper first—because supporting your body’s systems before adding hormones is what actually moves the needle long term.
If you’re curious about how your body is functioning (and whether hormones are the next right step for YOU), hit the DMs.
Don’t fall for the hype. Build resilience instead. 💪❤️
