They said “progesterone”… but it was actually a synthetic progestin!!! 🙃

Just read a study where the authors kept throwing around progesterone — but when you dig in, they were using medroxyprogesterone acetate the whole time.

Those are NOT the same thing. Not even close.

This is exactly why you can’t just read the headline or the conclusion and run with it. You have to look at what was actually used, how it was studied, and what they really mean.

Science isn’t wrong… but it is very easy to misinterpret if you’re not reading the full picture 👀 Details matter!

Progesterone ≠ progestins. And the difference is NOT small.

We’ve done a terrible job in medicine lumping these together like they’re the same thing… because they’re not even close.

Progestins = synthetic, altered compounds
→ more side effects
→ mood changes, bloating, headaches
→ higher risk profiles in studies

Micronized progesterone = bioidentical hormone
→ what your body actually recognizes
→ typically well tolerated
→ supports sleep, mood, and balance

These are chemically different in a big way, and your body responds accordingly.

So when someone says “progesterone gave me side effects”…
I always ask: was it actually progesterone—or a progestin?

Because that detail changes everything.

Medical guidelines are important… but they’re often behind the latest research.

And that gap? That’s where patients suffer.

As providers, it’s our responsibility to stay informed, keep learning, and apply current evidence—not just follow outdated protocols. Because medicine should evolve as fast as the science does.

Your care deserves more than “standard.”

Thinking about bioidentical hormones?

Here’s something many people don’t realize…

The quality of the compounding pharmacy matters. A lot.

Not all compounding pharmacies operate at the same level.

Some follow very strict quality controls, testing, and sourcing standards.

Others… unfortunately do not.

That means the purity, accuracy of dosing, and consistency of compounded hormones can vary depending on where they’re made.

This is why working with an experienced provider matters.

When I prescribe bioidentical hormones, I only work with trusted compounding pharmacies that meet high quality and safety standards.

Because when it comes to your hormones…

Quality should never be the shortcut.

It’s only Wednesday and I’ve already heard this way too many times…

“You’re fine.”
“Your labs are normal.”
“It’s not your hormones.”

Meanwhile—you’re exhausted, gaining weight, not sleeping, moody, low libido, and just don’t feel like yourself.

That’s not “fine.”

Normal labs do NOT always mean optimal for YOU. And they definitely don’t cancel out how you feel.

Stop getting dismissed. Start getting answers.

If your body feels off—there’s a reason.

Did you know that strength training burns more glucose than steady state cardio?

It aids in glycemic control, helps to develop lean body tissue and increases metabolic rate!

Don't forget: Muscle is metabolism!!

Exercise is amazing for your health — but it’s not the main driver of weight loss.

You can work out every day, but if your nutrition isn’t dialed in, the scale usually won’t move much.

Weight loss happens primarily in the kitchen. Exercise helps support it by improving metabolism, preserving muscle, and making you feel better — but what you eat matters most.

Focus on nourishing your body first. Movement is the bonus.

“Hormone therapy causes heart attacks.”

That’s what many women were told after the WHI study.

But here’s what newer research is showing:

A recent study of 36,000+ menopausal women compared older synthetic hormone therapy with bioidentical estradiol and micronized progesterone.

Women using estradiol + micronized progesterone had a 63–72% LOWER risk of major cardiovascular events like heart attack, stroke, and heart failure.

So what does this mean?

The risks of hormone therapy appear to be formulation-specific.

The older synthetic hormones studied decades ago are not the same as bioidentical estradiol and progesterone.

This is why the type of hormone therapy matters.

And why menopausal care should be based on current evidence — not outdated fear.

⚠️ Just because someone can order labs and give recommendations doesn’t mean they’re qualified to manage your health.

There are a growing number of online companies where you can order your own labs, they “interpret” them, and then tell you what supplements or medications to take.

But here’s the question no one is asking…

Are they actually medical providers trained to interpret labs and manage what happens next?

Because reading numbers on a report and understanding physiology, interactions, risks, and complications are two very different things.

What happens if:
• Your labs indicate something serious?
• A supplement interacts with another medication?
• You start something they recommended and have side effects?

Who is responsible for managing that?

Most of these companies are not healthcare providers, and they are not managing your care.

Your health deserves more than a generic lab report and a supplement list.

Work with a trained medical provider who understands the full picture and can actually take care of you if something goes wrong.

Your health isn’t a DIY project.

If you’ve thought:

“Something is off… but no one is taking me seriously.”

Read this.

You live in your body every day.

You know when your mood isn’t you.

When your sleep isn’t normal.

When your energy has disappeared.

When your libido has changed.

Being told “it’s just aging” doesn’t make the symptoms go away.

Hormonal changes deserve evaluation — not dismissal.

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is one option that can restore balance and improve quality of life when done safely and thoughtfully.

You deserve a provider who listens.

Who validates your experience.

Who partners with you.

I understand because I was told the same thing.
