Why Isn't My HRT Working?

Dr. Polly Watson discusses why hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may stop working and explores common factors that contribute to changes in effectiveness. She highlights the impact of blood sugar fluctuations, alcohol consumption, medication formulations, liver and gut health, stress, and thyroid hormone levels on HRT. Dr. Watson emphasizes the importance of communication with healthcare providers, monitoring hormone levels, and considering lifestyle factors when experiencing changes in hormone therapy.

Quotes

  • “Blood sugar fluctuations are a huge reason why hot flashes and night sweats kind of come back.”
  • "I think of alcohol as a special occasion thing... The metabolites of the alcohol can wake us up and can certainly precipitate hot flashes and night sweats."
  • “If someone starts you on hormones, they need to check your estrogen and progesterone levels, and they also need to check your thyroid levels.”
