Why You May Feel Worse On HRT And What To Do About It - Zora Benhamou



I'm answering your real-life menopause questions straight from the YouTube comments. If you've ever wondered which hormone helps with vaginal dryness, why progesterone can make your heart race, or how to test estrogen metabolism without spending a fortune, this episode is for you.

We cover:
  • Vaginal dryness and which type of estradiol works best locally vs systemically

  • Headaches from estrogen patches and how to adjust your dose or delivery

  • Heart palpitations with progesterone and what to do if symptoms worsen

  • Progesterone intolerance and why some women sleep worse instead of better

  • Breast tenderness on Oestrogel and how to find your optimal dose for long-term bone, brain, and heart protection

  • Estrogen metabolite testing and DUTCH test alternatives
