So you’re ready for hormones, but don’t know where to start?

I got you!

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is one of the most talked-about — and most confusing — topics for women in midlife. Between acronyms (HRT, MHT, HT), conflicting advice, and endless Google rabbit holes, it’s hard to know what’s fact, what’s fear, and what’s actually helpful.

Plus, it’s NOT a one-size fits all.

In this 60 minute masterclass, Dr. Carrie Jones will break down the basics of the most common hormones, Estradiol, Progesterone, and Testosterone, in plain English. We’ll cover when hormones might be a good fit, when it’s not (actual contraindications), what lab testing has (and hasn’t) been shown to help, and how to approach conversations with your practitioner with more confidence.

Plus, I’ll review the most common forms they come in. From patches to pills, vaginal to off-label forms since testosterone is not (yet?) FDA approved, you’ll learn about all your options.

Here’s what we’ll cover inside the webinar:

• At what age you can start it (and if you’re ever “too old”)

• If MHT is the same thing as HRT (not really, and I have thoughts)

• If you need testing prior to starting hormones

• The FDA approved reasons for using hormones (and why I think it needs updating)

• What are the actual contraindications vs “it depends on several factors”

• What’s the deal with bioidentical and if it’s a real thing

• The difference between systemic hormones and vaginal hormones and why you may need both

• Which hormone I start with if you only want to start with one (and why!)

• Why progesterone is important if you have your uterus and are on an estrogen.

• The many different forms available to you of each hormone - patch, pill, cream, gel, etc.

• Which forms are FDA approved and which are used off-label (and why)

Who should join me?

• You! If you’re over 40 and curious (or downright confused) about hormone therapy, this class is for you. Maybe you’re ready to start but don’t know how or where to begin so you feel confident talking with your healthcare provider. Or maybe you’re not quite ready for hormones, but want to understand the basics. This is the perfect place to start your education so you feel prepared when the time comes.

  Welcome to class. Hormones can feel like herding cats. Let me help.
