Women... as we all know our hormones change with the day, week, month and year. This is normal… until it’s not normal. Why do some women have massive hormone symptoms while others don’t?

In today episode of Women N Wellness with Dr. Caitlin, Dr. Deb who is a functional medicine MD, talks to us about what causes hormone imbalances... regardless of age.

If there are imbalances in hormones what can, and should, be done to balance them before jumping into hormone replacement therapy.

Some of the topics covered are:

- Is there a difference between synthetic hormone replacement drugs and bio-identical hormones?
- What should be done before taking HRT?
