Hormone Replacement Therapy, or what’s now being referred to more often as MHT, is rising in popularity. But who should take it? Which hormones is it replacing? Who is eligible? How does it help?

So many good questions!

Listener Amy had another good question: “Hi, Megan, I had a hysterectomy about five years ago. I'm being told that some women take progesterone, and I'm wondering if that's a good idea. And why do they take progesterone and not estrogen? Thank you so much.”

While I’m no doctor, I can help shed some light on this popular, albeit confusing, topic.

In this quick episode, I give you a brief history of HRT and how many of the risks associated with it have been debunked. Then we’ll do a broad overview of estrogen vs. progesterone, and why you might take one or the other or both.

But it doesn’t have to be this way! While knee pain is common, it is also avoidable - and I’m going to tell you how.

At some point, aches and pains feel like a fact of life - and some can be more disruptive than others. Take foot pain, for example. What do you do when every step you take hurts?

Listener Lize has this very struggle: “I have noticed that I am getting aches and pains in and around my heels. Is it plantar fasciitis? Tendonitis? What should I do about this?”

In this shortie episode, we dive into all things heel pain: what planter fasciitis IS and what it ISN’T, how to treat it when it flairs up, and ways to prevent debilitating heel pain in the first place.
