HRT SIDE EFFECTS - WHY?

❌HRT SIDE EFFECTS - WHY? 🚩The mantra of “keep increasing oestrogen doses” continues despite more and more women having horrendous side effects on HRT. ❗️If you have a more stress sensitive and dysregulated nervous system then continuously upping your oestrogen RATIOS will push an already dysregulated system into fight/flight mode. ❌This will result in heightened hyperarousal symptoms if it’s increased to ratios outside of your individual window of stress tolerance. 🧠Please do not take generic “cut and paste” HRT advice from your friend or someone on social media. 🧠HRT is psychoactive and it can affect brain changes and epigenetic changes. This can be both positive and negative depending on your dosing ratios. 🧠Your brain and nervous system is unique to you - the truth is dosing is complex for more “sensitive” brains and nervous system profiles. 🧠To understand hormones and nervous system profiles we have to understand the research in trauma and neurodivergence. ✅A trauma informed approach to prescribing HRT is urgently needed to prevent this from constantly reoccurring. 📌If you have had or are having side effects on HRT please know that you are not on your own - it’s not just you!
