With over 18 years of experience in obesity and bariatric medicine, Kate Clawson has helped thousands of patients on their weight loss journeys. From preparing indivi

duals for bariatric surgery to managing weight regain and post-op challenges, her deep clinical expertise ensures compassionate, high-quality care. Her passion for patient advocacy led her to a powerful discovery: many men struggling with weight also suffer from low testosterone. This insight expanded her practice to include Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) — helping men regain energy, focus, and confidence. At PharmAssist, Kate’s mission is simple: provide inclusive, evidence-based care in a welcoming, bariatric-friendly space where every patient feels respected and supported. Whether it’s medical weight loss, hormone optimization, or post-surgical care — Kate is here to help you achieve lasting health and confidence.

Women are often told their hormone symptoms are “normal,” “just part of getting older,” or “nothing to worry about.” But your hormones impact everything: your energy, mood, sleep, weight, cycle, and overall quality of life. You deserve real answers.

This week, I’m opening up a space for you to ask anything you’ve been wondering about your hormones. Whether it’s something you’ve been experiencing for months or a question you’ve never felt comfortable asking, you can bring it here.

Topics you can ask about:
▪️Perimenopause and menopause
▪️Weight changes that don't make sense
▪️Mood swings or irritability
▪️Sleep issues
▪️Low energy or burnout
▪️Cycle changes
▪️Libido
▪️Stress and cortisol
▪️Thyroid concerns
▪️Metabolism

Nothing is too small or too specific. If it’s affecting your daily life, it matters.

Drop your questions in the comments. Let’s make hormone health something women can talk about openly and confidently.

Headline: The TRT side effect nobody talks about… 🛌👇
If your TRT cream has you fighting monsters or living out a cinematic universe in your sleep, you are not alone.
Applying your testosterone cream at night can cause a sharp hormone spike right when your brain is trying to enter deep REM sleep. The result? Vivid, exhausting dreams and nightmares.
How to fix it:
Timing is everything: Try moving your application to first thing in the morning. This mirrors your body’s natural daily testosterone peak and helps protect your sleep cycle.
Always check in with your prescribing provider before adjusting your protocol!

Science is finally catching up to the data.
Just as the TRAVERSE trial recently proved that testosterone replacement therapy is non-inferior to placebo regarding major heart risks, the modern "re-look" at the WHI study reveals that estrogen therapy has been safe for decades when properly timed.
The narrative is shifting from fear to informed care:
• Testosterone: The FDA updated labels in 2025 to reflect TRT's cardiovascular safety based on TRAVERSE findings.
• Estrogen: Modern reanalysis confirms that for many, the benefits for heart and bone health far outweigh the risks.
It’s not that the hormones changed—it’s that our awareness did.

Low T disrupts metabolism and insulin regulation, making it harder for the body to burn calories and causing it to store them as fat instead. This could result in:

✅Stubborn Belly Fat: An increase in fat around the abdomen and waist that's difficult to lose even with diet and exercise.

✅Loss of Muscle Mass/Tone: Reduced muscle strength and size, leading to a softer appearance and a lower metabolic rate.

✅Increased Chest Fat: Fat accumulation in the chest area

✅Persistent Fatigue: Feeling constantly tired or having low energy, which hinders the motivation to exercise.

✅Difficulty Losing Weight: Struggling to lose weight despite healthy diet choices or active lifestyle changes.

If these signs sound familiar, consider getting your T levels checked (🔗in the comments).

When she’s not keeping our clinic running smoothly, Madison is out setting new goals — like her 24:58 PR at the Emma Creek 5K.

Ninth overall. Second in her age group.

We’re so proud of her and grateful for everything she brings to PharmAssist.

When your hormones feel off, it’s natural to want to feel like yourself again, and that can lead to trying every new routine, supplement, or habit at once. But that approach isn’t always the best path and can be exhausting.

So today, choose one area to focus on:
➡️Sleep
➡️Stress
➡️Nutrition
➡️Movement
➡️Hydration

Pick the one that feels the most doable right now. Small, consistent shifts in even one of these areas can create real changes in energy, mood, cravings, and overall hormone balance.

Which one are you choosing? Drop it in the comments!

Trying to lose weight? Here are three things to stop doing because they quietly work against your progress:

❌ Relying on medication alone
▪️ Medications are a tool, not the whole toolbox.

❌ Over-exercising
▪️ More isn't always better — it can increase hunger and make consistency harder.

❌ Comparing your progress to someone else's
▪️ Your biology, your habits, your timeline.

Your journey is yours, and it’s allowed to look different.
