How To Know When Or If To Use Bioidentical Hormones When TTC

We're digging into bioidenticals and why this matters when you are TTC.

When I was diagnosed with POF/POI at 28, I was told that I needed to get hormone replacement therapy right away to protect my bones, prevent osteoporosis, and protect my heart.

So I took a synthetic form of hormone replacement therapy for years.

Then, I discovered that the root cause of my infertility was food sensitivity, gut infection, and chronic stress.

Many of my chronic health issues went away because I committed to diet and lifestyle changes.

I stopped taking hormone replacement therapy because of the negative side effects of synthetic hormones.

But I know I still needed support with my hormones.

Enter bioidentical hormones.

You may be wondering, "Can I use bioidenticals if I am TTC?"

They can be a good addition to your fertility toolkit...but they need to be used at the right time (lifestyle changes need to be prioritized first before we take the hormones).

Because bioidenticals alone are not the answer, but they can be part of the solution.
