I'm currently on HRT and my dr is supportive of starting microdosed GLP-1s to help with other issues (weight, inflammation, cholesterol & LDL, etc). Admittedly I am nervous. I'm concerned about some of the really bad side effects, but more so life long reliance. I know Kaylyn suggests tirzepatide for fewer side effects. Has anyone successfully used them to improve their health, then wean off successfully and keep the weight off and improved health? If so I'm curious what that looked like for you.

For those of you on HRT, what would you say were the first notable changes you experienced after starting your protocol? What improvements stood out to you the most? For me, I saw an immediate improvement in my brain fog. I'm talking in the first couple weeks, it felt like I could finally have a coherent thought. & I also noticed that I wasn't as irritable or over stimulated all the time. That really stood out to me because I was SUPER on edge all the time before starting my injections. 🥹 I'm curious to hear what you guys experienced!

Hormone shifts can impact your amygdala, aka your brain’s fear center, plus your vestibular system and motion tolerance. So your brain is working way harder to process movement and sensory input. What used to feel automatic can suddenly feel overstimulating. That overload can flip your nervous system into fight or flight fast. Driving requires constant sensory processing and split second decisions, which can be the perfect storm for panic mode. Hormone therapy can help address the root cause.
